unstable upload

Hello all,

I use dc++ in a private hub to trasmit personally made rave mixes, and I am having a great deal of problems getting my upload to remain stable at any speeds.

I am using the latest dc++ client and all my Sygate Permissions seem properly set, yet if I have 2 people connected to me ( the minimum for the hub I use is 2 slots ) I get complaints of random speed drops to b/s ( less then 1kbs!! ) this I got overnight even when I was not using the pc!!.

My gf's laptop is connected to my pc via Ethernet but even when she isn't up or downloading anything my upload is low, some times about 14kbs per user, but as low as 1kbs or lower.

Is something going seriously wrong here?

I am on 2mb and 256k up. NTL.

The 2mb service is 200k up, not 256k.

I found a solution if anyone is interested, I changed my connection on dc++ to passive, and really entered no other data in the boxes, my uploads are now steady and not all over the place as before.

Its been a while since i used dc++ but...

To get best speeds when I got my router, I had to set to 'Active', put in my ip address and the port forwarded. But then again, im not sure if you use a router... 8)
