View 1 RepliesI'm not getting file transfers that utilize the max bandwidth of my ADSL broadband. I have a 512 kbps line (I know that's not broadband in most places, but such is the option available to me), and I usually get download speeds of 55-60 kbps. Since the past couple of days, this has dropped to an abysmal 2-3 kbps. So I used [url] to test my download speeds, and they were as expected (i.e. the usual 55-60 kbps). I also used the speed test page of my ISP, and that too, gave the usual results. There has been no throttling from the ISP, as I confirmed from their help desk.
Also, web pages open fine. It's only when I'm downloading a file (Yeah, web pages are also files, but what I mean is compressed archived files; .rar, .tar.?g* et.al.) that I can't get the desired speed. I haven't changed the resolv.conf file, not have I made any other changes that might cause this. I use ppp to dial-up to my ISP, and use the pon and poff scripts that ppp provides. I have a peers file configured for my ISP, which again, I haven't edited.
I have an acer aspire one notebook (I gather firefox 2 is interwoven on the system?). Anyway, keep pressing firefox icon and it churns over put nothing happens. I found the following advice on another site: (Sorry this is so long, but I wanted to give you as much info for you to help me)
Press Alt+F2 to show the Run program window. Check Run in terminal, leave the input field blank, and click Run to open a terminal. If you're not familiar with the Linux command line just follow the instructions step by step. The easiest way is to simply paste the commands into the terminal with Ctrl+Shift+V. Most of them will only give feedback if an error occurs.
The first command uses wget to download Firefox 3.6 from an official mirror. You can edit the lang variable at the end, in this case en-US, if you'd like another language. All available languages are listed here, just hover over the download link to get the language code from the status bar.
wget -N [url]
The next step extracts the just downloaded file and modifies a link to point to it. In a few cases a connection refused error message may be triggered by sudo, which is not an error but a bug in sudo and can be safely ignored.
The next step links all plug-ins (not to be confused with extensions) to it.
Launch the profile manager using the command below. Create a new profile, name it anything you like and select it. If you want to keep your bookmarks export them via the bookmark manager first. You can then delete the old default profile.
firefox -profilemanager -no-remote
As a bonus you can also change the icon to the official Firefox icon.
Finally reboot the AA1 to make the desktop aware of the new icon and browser location.
However when I try the above I get the following responses at each point:
I do now have a new icon on the desktop! but still no internet.
Is there a way for wget not to download a file but rather just access it? I use it to access a URL that triggers a process on a web server, but the actual HTML file at that location doesn't need to be downloaded and saved. I couldn't find anything in wget's help to show if there's a way to do this. Could anyone suggest a way of doing this?

i recently-ish bought a netbook, and a mobile-broadband toggle to go with it, and set it aside to use later. i promptly installed the Netbook remix on the laptop. Well, I goofed, and didn't notice until well after I bought the WAN toggle that it was made for windows.
so, I downloaded Wine in an attempt to run the start.exe and get my internet. the executable (and the entire drive, i found) are marked by ubuntu as read only. Is there anyway to change this to allow me to run the file? if i did, would it even work?
I have ubuntu 11.04 in my netbook and when I inserted reliance netconnect broadband usb modem,it automatically detected and after giving the necessary details it was connected..But I am not able to access any websites..On googling I found that I have to make changes to /etc/resolv.conf..But resolv.conf file is missing.

View 10 Replies View RelatedFirst I go to the following URL to download the latest version of VLC Player, which I greatly prefer to Totem or any other standard Linux video/audio player: http://www.fileguru.com/Movie-Player/download. After I click on the "Download" link, a new window appears which asks me if I want to 1) Open with Archive Manager (default) or 2) Save File. There is a drop down arrow next to the first choice which only gives "Other..." as the only other choice. Well, if I choose the first option, the download appears as an .exe file in the "Downloads" window.
A window with "Download Error" in its Title Bar appears with the following message in it: "/tmp/VLC_Player_Setup-3.exe could not be opened, because the associated helper application does not exist. Change the association in your preferences." I don't even know yet how to even open up an .exe file in Linux, despite repeated research.

I have a question about downloading web pages. If I download with web page complete will I be able to open the pages without being on line, or will there be some pages that I will still need to log in for. If a web browser is not sufficient, is there some command I can use with Wget to accomplish this?

I use Transmission to download torrents off the internet. The problem is whenever I start the download, I cannot access the internet via my web browsers, Chrome AND Firefox. Altho, I can use Pidgin or Empathy to communicate. Why should I do ? I am assuming it is causing some sorta congestion .. I tried giving the downloads "low" priority, applying temporary speed limits but it doesn't help.
