Hey Friends,

From Today, Wednesday, 10 January 2007, until Friday, 12 January 2007 we will be allowing downloads via our OpenBrowse network as a second trial.

Our first trial went really well, however, there were some speed issues that had to be worked out.

We believe we have found the solution to the problem, and will be hosting the above trial in order to get feedback from our valued users.

If you have OpenBrowse, please feel free to download over the next few days, and report your speeds here.

I am looking forward to any comments / suggestions.

Warm regards
MrBEEP
 
Hi MrBEEP :-)
is there any extra settings that need to be done ?
I am at work now but can't wait to start testing once I get home :-)
good job :-)
 
Hey bro.

Nope. You must just make sure you have OpenRouter logged in, point to a file, and download it :)

I can't wait for your feedback.

I unfortunately cant try it. The account I am using stopped working just now, so I cant log in :(

If it comes back on in time and I can cap it quick I will try it.
 
hmm and easynews account with openbrowse, i could like this...
 
Well blew my cap last night to smithereens, so tonight I will test the downloads and let you know
 
Well tested it and its working like a dream, I have a 192k proxy and am currently downloading from microsoft.com at 39kb
 
Well done MrBEEP.!!!
I am downloading at average of 18KB which is great..Is that a taste of things to come and next month we weill be offered accounts with OpenProxy interational downlads???
 
Only thing that i found out not working is trying to download things from rapidshare. Asked a friend to upload some stuff for me to there and then i get it there again, but no luck.
 
Rapidshare does not like proxy servers unfortunately.

Well I was downloading whole evening and exclusively from RAPIDSHARE.

MrBEEP ..Any plans to offer special Openweb accounts including proxy downloads?

Can one get OpenBrowse as an addon to their existing openweb account?

EDIT - and is it mac compatible?
