    Questions on files downloading

  • Which of download accelerators can I use ?
    1. You can use any download accelerator.
  • I can1t download any file! What is happening ?
    1. If you do not have an Premium account, you need to count on a number of restrictions while downloading. We allow to download only one file from one IP-Address at the same time and restrict number of data you can download from our servers within particulate time period. If several service users have the same IP-Address (for example while your Internet provider uses proxi-servers or NAT), it can influence negatively your work with site.
  • I am not downloading/I have not downloaded anything but get the message "Allowed downloading volume is exceeded". Why ?
    1. Perhaps somebody is downloading files using your IP-Address or have already used the allowed downloading volume. There are three ways of resolving this problem
    2. You can get connected through another port. Some internet providers use proxi-servers only to get connected through port 80. We suggest to use two other ports: 800 1723. This way can not be used if your Internet provider gives private IP-addresses (10.*, 172.16-31.*, 192.168.*) or uses NAT.
    3. You can contact your Internet provider asking to give you public IP-Address or change the Internet provider.
