I've been having a lot of problems with OpenRouter.

Pages don't finish loading, images load halfway or not at all, and every now and again I get a "too many connections" error message. On top of that, it's really slow.

I've emailed MrBeep about the problem, and he insists that it lies with my PC, but using WebAfrica prepaid, there aren't any of these problems. Is anyone else experiencing something similiar? I'm running Vista, using Firefox.

I'd like to know before I shoot my mouth off. ;)
 
If you have the FasterFox extension installed it will open too many connections which exceeds industry specifications.

Either way, type about:config in the url bar and filter the word max, set the max number of network connections to a lower value.

My settings are default, even changing max per proxy to 1 doesn't make any difference
 
I'm having the same problem.. only started in the last 4-5 days.

Normally, even when I am capped and using Openrouter, the pages will still load (albeit slowly), and all images will load too or at least attempt to.

Lately, the images simply show the image placeholder barely a second after the page has opened up.

This "too many connections" is killing me -- and it's not the pc or the modem or settings
 
same here: 'to many connections'. Been happening the last few days.

XP and firefox.
 
Same here, happens on both my PC and my bro's. It's very annoying

Firefox, XP
 
We have identified a "Too many connections" fault, and Engineers have been working on it since Saturday.

We are hoping to have it resolved by latest today.

The problem came about after people started downloading P2P and torrents using OpenRouter, and thus more limits had to be put in place. The one limit is giving a problem, however, we have a resolution which we are busy implementing.
