Gee I don't know. I stop collecting my data feed around 3:30 to 4:00, and yesterday was the first time I had tried sending the training video's to Dropbox. I didn't do a thing on the computer after I started the upload. I do stand corrected, the upload was 2.3 gig, the files seem to be there this morning but none of the icons are showing with the files, just blank screens. Should I upload a large file again I'll watch for performance issues. At the office I have U-Verse, the download speed is 26 meg and I think the upload is 1.5 meg.
