All,
I am having the strangest network problem in vista.
Downloads from site like: file2front, guru3d.com, relic.com, like 4 more..
(basically any site that hosts patches)
The downloads freeze up on me EVERY TIME.
Downloads begin, and go to around 5-6meg, then hang.
The same file downloaded multiple times will always hang in the same spot.
This occurs in firefox and ie7.
It occurs when rightclick-> download.
OR using a download manager
OR just clicking on the file and selecting save.
It only seems to happen with LARGE >30meg files. I was able to download all my motherboard drivers from asus no probem. but I can't d/l any of the game patches I need.
Web surfing occurs no problem. (I'm posting from the pc now)
Windows shows me no errors
Same issue on all the patch sites I could think of.
I have: vista home premium 32bit with asus p5b-deluxe mobo.
I tried it with windows firewall off. makes no difference.
I updated my marvell lan drivers (using vista). no change.
Asus does not have vista marvell LAN drivers on their site.
I tried it using both on-board NIC's, no change.
Cleared IE7 cache, no change
I tried it at autoneg and 100/full no change.
Downloads occur fine on my windows xp pc.
I am going through a linksys WAP54g router. Hardwired.
I am completely stuck... please help!@
