Split 174 Meg file into parts

Have you confirmed that it IS dropping packets? Let me know the outcome.

I took the system to the computer shop and the COPY command worked fine. Then when I got back to my apartment I tried the copy and it didn't work. I guess it must be one of my internet cabled or the modem / router. ext thing is to call Spectrum and say they need to relace both....
 
The modem/router is from 2006 so I have an appt tonight at 7 to pick up new equip and i am hoping that will fix my problem
 
Are the two up and down-speeds good? I am having someone bring me a new cable to run from router to PC - then I can test the COPY .... command....
The download speed is very good by my standards. Upload speed ... eh ... but I doubt it limits 99+% of what you do, and you probably wouldn't notice when it does. It's about 1.5 megabyte per second. Do you think you ever need to send that much that quickly?

With Verizon FIOS I have 150 Mbps down and 160 Mbps up according to Ookla. I'm never bothered by any slowness. Yesterday, after reading your posts, I looked for a way to limit my upload speed to see if I would notice a difference. There doesn't seem to be a way to do that built into Windows.

What's the speed test for a phone? I'm almost always home where my phone has a 5G connection to my router. Watching TV with Roku, also 5G to my router, is excellent.

Apperently Spectrum didn't connect my ethernet cables so the previous readings were wifi.

with cables it is now:

Download Mbps

373.25

Upload Mbps

11.59

Is this maybe a satellite system? Download via dish, upload via phone?
 
What's the ethernet connected to? It seems odd to me that your upload and download speeds are so different.
AFAIK, Spectrum (formerly RoadRunner) has always been that way. I wonder why ... the technology?

Their available packages now are apparently 300/10, 500/20, 1G/35.

All the Verizon FIOS packages are up/down symmetric.
 
how do i tell which of the 3 options above i have? going to pick an order up at Staples thne 'll do the COPY .... shortly

Your speeds suggest you have (I'm guessing) an older, non-current, package. Or maybe you're getting super performance from 300/10 or crummy performance from 500/20. It's hard to tell. Maybe you could view the details by logging into your Spectrum account (create if necessary). If you call their customer service they could probably tell you.

ISPs (at least Verizon) change their packaging and pricing and typically don't tell current users. Because of newer packaging and pricing, I could go from 150/150 to 1G/1G and save money! Something like that is in the works. :-)

Have you verified that the firewall is logging DROPped packets?

Give it some time before the FINDSTR. As I said earlier, the firewall can be lazy about updating the log.
 
I just tried now - 7pm and nothing was found. maybe check your logs - see if it still shows it's triyng to access it as a folder - not a file
 
This is what I see. Below it what I see when I download the file. If you used TCC, yours, unlike mine is not saying "TYPE I" and "SIZE /split.zip" before PASV. I don't know if that matters or of any settings that would affect it. And this one doesn't have the three second delay before QUIT that earlier tests had. And yours is saying "LIST /split.zip" whereas mine says "RETR /split.zip". Did you do "dir ftp://vefatica.net/split.zip"(instead of COPY). It seems good that it got past the PASV (unlike earlier tests). But I have no idea why it failed.

is what i did with TCMD. Would Rex have any ideas?
 
@vefatica - maybe post the log once you start TCMD in an elevated session and no INI file - and also what version of TCMD/tcc you use....

thne I'll do the same thing
 
I'm using TCC 30.00.22 x64, elevated, no INI file (started with /ii). I do not use TCMD. I issued copy ftp://vefatica.net/split.zip. The file was copied successfully and the FTP server's log shows this.

@vefatica - any other suggestions?

If firewall logging of dropped packets is enabled for all three profiles, and you have verified that dropped packets are being logged and that no packets to/from 108.12.0.196 have been dropped, I have no more suggestions. If you discover that some other 3rd party software is causing the problem, get rid of that software.

The TCMD.INI you sent me correctly has "PassiveFTP=Yes". You might verify that that TCMD.EXE is the one actually in use (echo %_ininame).

Is your TCC up-to-date?

Of course there are a few "stock" suggestions ... repair or uninstall/reinstall TCC ... try things in Windows's safe mode.
 
@vefatica

I start TCC with /II so
Code:
echo %_ininame
returns "Echo OFF"

i also went back to Split 174 Meg file into parts to review the settings. Also changed the filename so it can denote wohich of the 3 profiles the log is coming from.

Code:
TCC  30.00.22 x64   Windows 10 [Version 10.0.19045.3324]
TCC Build 22   Windows 10 Build 19045
