Anyone else been having problems sending packets ??
it's not that the server is down
it's like they are corrupting or something
cause it's happened about 5 times in the past week or so
and i have kept the result.sah file and tryed to send it at later times but it just doesn't send
so i hafta start over

anyone seen similar ?
it has never happened to me this often (but has before)

i've heard of these issues with past versions
but i thought they solved them already

I've seen others having problems lately on the S@H msg boards. By chance are you getting any error messages? Error # 20?
Are you on dial-up or cable/DSL?

From threads i've read, it seems more people that use highspeed connections have more problems sending/recieving than people that use dial-up. Don't know a reason why, just an observation.

yeah i'm not getting any error codes
DJSnairdA, running the windows command line version under linux with wine is the fastest way to do seti even faster than the linux version
i did a test and posted it here months ago think it was over half an hour faster
