Feature Request - Multisegmented downloading

#1 Post by TheMafia » 2014-04-10 00:22

Hi Filezilla Team

I must say that your software is far ahead of any out there.

The only feature that I would like to see is multi-segmented downloading. Unfortunately ISPs here in Australia are crooks and like to throttle anything they can.

Is this something that can be easily implemented? Sounds like a complicated one.

I have activated multiple transfers but this doesn't help if you are downloading a large single file, and the ISP is throttling you at 100k/sec.

Thanks

Not going to happen. Try not throwing money at crooks.

We don't really have a choice... They really pound us in the ass here.

If people were starting to use segmented downloads, then these bad ISPs would throttle individual connections even more, completely negating the benefit of segmented downloads, but keeping all the drawbacks.
