I`ve got 512k ADSL connection & I`ve tried all sorts of settings with DE but the speed for downloading say 10mb file is same as using IE6 (around 53kb/s - also just timing with a watch). Any settings that maximise a broadband connection would be appreciated. (I`ve got it on http proxy with everything else blank at the moment - a suggestion given on this forum).
thanks,
tony

Thanks for your prompt reply ... I selected 15 threads in the connection tab & noted 10 were actually downloading the others up to 14 were indicating still being connected continually.

Please go to Download Express Options dialog, Connection page.
Please select High speed mode and set 3 or 4 threads for this speed, click OK.
Then please try your downloads and write us about the result.
Thank you.

> Thanks for your reply Alexander - I have tried 10mb files on High speed & set threads to 4,3,2 & 1 on different downloads - there seems to be no real change - the average is about 3 mins 15sec.
Thank you for your feedback.
Does Download Express work for you without using this "Use NTLM authentication" box?
