imacross4 offline until I can switch to a new isp. Shaw cable modem is now set at 50 gb uploads + downloads / month and 1-2 gb/day! Shaw cable has an open ended contract, so they can rewrite whatever amount of bandwidth is too much and how much they can charge for bandwidht as well. I was thinking that I cannot go back to MTS adsl modem because of my router difficutlies. Maybe, there's some other cable or adsl service in Winnipeg that doesn't restirct bandwidht so much. I can only download or upload at about 20 kb/s for the whole day if I want to keep to the agreement. That's worse than 56 k. I might as well get a separate phone line and get a cheap unlimited 56k dialup sevice. I would end up paying the same and not being disconnected every other week. Any other ideas?

Somehow I lost the esa-r4 antennae for my yamato 1/60 ve-1 elintseeker toy. Does anybody know how to get a replacement? Thanks --- edited for toy version specifics

imacross 4 online I was having trouble connecting because my ip number was reset by shaw cable. So, I had fiddle with port forwarding settings to connect through my router. Try passive connection or active connection.

imacross4 hub online I'm not connected just now beacuse i'm on 7-10 days probation from Shaw cable. Shaw cable disconnected my cable modem for the last 2 days for excessive bandwidth usage. I was number 4 out of 85000 for the last month. over half of the bandwidht usage they count is uploading: 80 gb download and 200+ upload. Oops. I just leave my filesharing online all the time while working, lost track. Shaw cable suggested using shareaza, netlimiter and newsgroups rather than bittorrent or direct connect. I can run the direct connect hub, but now I really have to watch how much people are uploading from me. That's really annoying. I found out that my isp number changed, so my dc client settings needed to be changed as well, and then I was able to connect to my dc hub. And my external hard drive is shutting off by itself 4 times in the last 3 days, so I'm backing up as much files as I can before the hard drive fails. I've lost over 10 gb of comics so far. You can still connect to the dc hub and trade files. For the the next week, I'll just check occasionally how everything is running.

Imacross4 hub online, but i'm not. Not able to connect to my own dc hub no matter what DC client I use. "connection refused by target machine" I have forwarded the ports for the dc client and the dc hub, so both are working. I am able to connect to other dc hubs and my imacross dc hub is working. Just not working for me. I'll keep working at it. One day everything was working and then I was disconnected from my own hub without changing any of the dc hub or client settings. I've tried 5 different versions of the dc client and no go.

imacross4 hub supposedly online I am unable to connect to my own hub. "connection refused by target machine" If anybody has been able to log on right now, then could you tell me which client you are using? Currently, I am using bcdc++ .674b, which works for the comic hubs I'm currenly on right now, but not with ynhub software.

imscross4 offline "connection refused by target machine" I tried resetting my modem. Doublechecked my ynhub software settings for changes and I can't figure out why I can't connect to my own hub, but at the same time connect to megaman.gotdns.com:455 with no problems. I can't figure why I can stay connected for 4 days and then the hub software resets 3 times in 2 hours and then completely shuts downm even though the hub software says it's online. Time to look for another dc hub software.

imacross4 online I had to change the port forwarding number to 411 because dc hub ynhub software changes the port number every once in a while. log on with imacross4.myftp.org:411

imacross4 onine okay, I'll just ignore Shaw cable for now. Doesn't quite make sense to me that they're charging by bandwidth and speed. If my speed was constant for a whole month, then it would be impossible to download above a the gigabyte restriction. It's like shaw cable wants to charge me for a faster connection, but they don't want me to use it. "Bandwidth, Data Storage and Other Limitation You must comply with the current bandwidth, data storage and other limitations on the Services. Users must ensure that their activity does not improperly restrict, inhibit or degrade any other customer’s use of the Services, nor represent (in the sole judgment of Shaw) an unusually large burden on the network itself, such as, but not limited to, peer to peer file sharing programs, serving streaming video or audio, mail, http, ftp, irc, dhcp servers, and multi-user interactive forums. The guidelines for Bandwidth Usage/month for each service package are the following: Shaw High-Speed (with Xtreme-I) - 50 GigaByte; SOHO - 50 GigaByte; Professional - 70 GigaByte; Business - 100 GigaByte (combined download and upload). Business services which are combined with the Xtreme-I upgrade retain the stated Bandwidth Usage/month guidelines. The guidelines for acceptable web site traffic include 2 GigaByte/month for SOHO, Professional, and Business hosting packages. Residential Shaw High Speed and High Speed Lite services do not have specific guidelines of this nature as the Service is not intended for business applications. Shaw reserves the right to set specific limits for Bandwidth Usage and charge for excessive Bandwidth Usage for residential Services at any time. In addition, users must ensure that their activity does not improperly restrict, disrupt, inhibit, degrade or impede Shaw’s ability to deliver the Services and monitor the Services, backbone, network nodes, and/or other network services."

imacross4 online , but for how long? I just received an email from my isp, Shaw cable. ------------------------------------------------------ Dear Shaw Internet Customer In order to provide all Shaw Internet customers with an optimal Internet experience we proactively assess our network.

More and faster works fine for me; that's why I switched to cable. I'll keep you guys posted on what this means. I have to make a phone call to shaw cable.

imacross4 online you have to be specific which port number for imacross4. imacross4.myftp.org by itself does not work. To log onto imacross4 dc hub: Go to favorite hubs, copy and paste " imacross4.myftp.org:1411 " with your macrossworld name and optional password. Hoping that works.

imacross4 dc hub back online Getting really fed up with neomodus dc hub. I'm trying ynhub dc hub software. Neomoduse 2.0 dc hub software didn't have any options to prevent all these ban and log in problems. Lots of checklists and stuff on this new software. Seems to be working fine right now. logged in as boinger, but I'm not sure what the other 3 operator nickanames are good for.

imacross4 offline ftp server won't work either. "port 21 is already in use" If you would like to connect to me, then use a direct connect client with this dc address: megaman.gotdns.com:455 I'm going to work nights this week until Friday. That's all I can do for now.

Imacross4 dc hub online. I couldn't get my ftp server to work. "Port 21 in use" back to dc hub: imacross4.myftp.org:411 logon name: (macrossworld name) password (whatever you would like) ******************************** port number updated to 411 ************************ June 20/05 imacross 4 offline until I can find a more reliable isp !

imacross 4 online What worked for me was to register my macrossworld name and a password. So, everybody logging onto imacross 4 dc hub pm me with your name and a simple passoword and I'll register you. Hopefully, that fixes the temporary ban. Otherwise, somebody else could start a dc hub, I could restart my ftp sever, or we could just pick a solid connecting dc hub and all meet there. any other ideas?

imacross4 dc hub online surprisingly. Somebody had been logging in with my macrossworld name and causing me to appear to connect too often to the dc hub. I suspect that is why I was getting temporarily banned. I made a password to register as an operator. I'm hoping that fixes that problem child. my non operator handle is macronapnaut and I would appreciate that anyone else would use their own macrossworld name. thanks. next time dc hub or client crashes, I'll upgrade to .674 bcdc++ and try out that different hub software. see you on the imacross4 hub ******** PS For those of you with 0 (zero) kb in their fileshare, you wil not be able to connect to the dc imacross4 hub. By software default, you have to have at least 1 kb of something to share. More stuff to share the better.

imacross 4 offline So, basically if I cannot find out how to connect to my own dc hub server then I will be shutting down the imacross4 dc hub and somebody else will have to run a dc hub. I'm online as a client (and not an operator) with direct connect hub Megman dc information: megaman.gotdns.com:455

imacross 4 online Last night at 2 am sentral standard time, a major electrical transformer blew somewhere in the city of Winnipeg and just about every electrical circuit blinked off for 2 seconds. Good thing that there's a power backup generator in St boniface hospital. But, my computer restarted itself and the dc hub was shutdown. Now my main problem with my direct connect hub is that I am being banned by my own server for "connecting too often". Maybe it's the bcdc++ client that I"m using? I can't find a specific setting that makes the dc client reconnect to the server when a connection is dropped. What a pain. So, I think I'll have to try different dc hub and dc client softwares until I find something that works for me. bye for now, Patrick

imacross4 online baned by my own dc server?!

imacross 4 crashed from ATI video drivers. I was just watching xfiles season 9 disc 1 first episode and all of a sudden I see a blue screen telling me that windows had to be shutdown and checked for errors. Right now, my desktop computer is in the middle of scandisk for file errors. ((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((( Imacross 4 back online

imacross 4 online the imacross server faq is already pinned and does include how to connect with direct connect hub if you run into problems, then you can always pm or email me or message under this thread For e.g.: Try to have at least 1kb of stuff under your share folder or you won't be able to connect to the imacross4 direct connect hub.

imacross 4 online akt_m I haven't downloaded Macross ost III or sdf macross Irjima Mari Song Memory yet. router, port forwarding and active connection for direct connect here and here

imacross4 back online I was trying out the du super controller software for bandwidth control and when I saw it wasn't what I wanted I uninstalled it and it momentarily bumped me off of the internet.

imacross 4 online Somehow I got disconnected from my own hub. I wonder if Shaw cable modem resets my connection every once in a while.

imacross 4 back online no ip software quit working last night, so the direct connect hub stopped working properly.
