Forums Connection Issues DCC Pending

The random local ports option just makes mIRC use non-consecutive ports when creating listening sockets.

Did you check out the Cant DCC Send thread for things to try?

Is anybody know why error "Transfer timed out" or "Transfer incomlete" happens?

From the start my DSL capable of about 27Kbs speed, but it getting at no more then 6.5Kbs and in abut 5 minutes time it dies out with above errors.

Please help

-do you have any of the assorted scripts etc that are supposed to speed up dcc? those cause probs such as you describe

-have you tried without any scripts on a clean copy of mIRC

-what OS do you have

-all size files or just large ones? you could have some limitations set at your isp

-keep in mind that the prob could be on the senders end. speed is only going to go as fast as the slowest end, which depends on several factors

-mIRC wasnt designed for major file sharing, its dcc capabilities are basic and aimed for occasional sharing between friends

I have the same problem connecting to certain fserves. It only happens to me when i get .rar files. Is there any way to change that? My ignore is disabled and .rar is not in the ignored part of my options. I can get any other file from an fserve that I can't get a .rar from.
