Hi,

is it possible to configure Boinc, that it downloads only one file at a time.

I'm using a mobile Internet connection, and it is very slow ~10kb/sec. If there are 6 Downloads at a time, it disconnects really often and takes a long time with retrying.

But if Boinc would only download one file after another, i wouldn't have this problems.

Thanks

Ok i just found the solution.

i added this line to my cc_config.xml:

<max_file_xfers>1</max_file_xfers>

Maximum number of simultaneous file transfers (default 8).
