    [The Cigarette Smoking Man] how do i set up an ftp site with esat?

    PiE is right, that's an esat server. The only way to setup a ftp site with esat would be to put a server in there or rent some space, either way you'll have to pay.

    Also, try and download that file from this ftp server and see what you get:

    thats more like it The Cigarette Smoking Man i got sick of waiting for it to finish but i downloaded 123MB in 10mins.the highest speed was around 1.5MB/s but it leveled out at about 250KB/S

    ntl:World - 512k service Server Download:
    83KB/s (664Kb/s) - Superb - much higher than expected

    I'm guessing that this is pretty fast for a home connection.

    I get so confused with my KB/s and Kb/s - but then again I don't get paid for it - Eircom people do...

    I've seen a steady 1.4MB/s using the standard Eircom ADSL connection with a few Win2K registry tweaks (can't remember where the tweaks come from, I have them in the favourites on one of my machines)

    As for my max download speed, levelled at 4.9MB/s transferring an ISO from the Esat FTP server from work!!! :p
