Thanks for any and all help.

FG version 1.5.5.95 -- FF version 26

Issue: When I am downloading multiple files as each file completes download the download speed for the other files still downloading doesn't increase. Some files are downloading at 600 KB/sec or more and then others are downloading at 70 KB/sec and when the faster downloading files complete the bandwidth is not given to the files that are still downloading.

I really like this product!!

I didn't know if there was a setting that I was missing. I searched the forum and the FAQ and didn't find anything related to this.

Comcast is my ISP and I average about 28 Mbps download.

FlashGot had nothing to do with that.
All it does it to pass links on to a download manager, be it browser built-in or external.

Sometimes (& assuming the server supports resume), pausing momentarily, then restarting will get you a faster pipe. Sometimes certain servers in a domain are simply slow, where others at the same are fast. Using multiple threads may help.
