Ok. I understand.

But what you say may indicate that speed is a factor. Though strange. Maybe the router ain't geared for your fast download rate. > Is there a way to limit the download speed? `curl` can with the '--limit-rate' parameter. So something along the line of: $ curl --limit-rate 100K http://path/to/autobuild/dmg > dmg # dl @ 100K/s _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
