Re: Can't Upload Tasks

One problem I found that seems to have fixed the problem for me was, my router (not modem) that comes before my DSL Modem had time zone/date/time set to 1 jan 1990, 12 am, GMT. had to connet to router and drill down into settings until I found it, set to correct and cleared all backlog (3 jobs) in about 10 min, after fussing with it for about an hr.

Re: Can't Upload Tasks

At last I solved the problem with uploads!!

I had to do a little trick with Windows 7 default tcp/ip behaviour...
1) open command prompt with administrator rights
2) write: "netsh int tcp set global autotuninglevel=disabled"
(without quotes)
Then I was able to upload and surf the net (gMail, Blogger and many others web sites) faster.

Hope it helps someone esle

Re: Can't Upload Tasks

Hi,

Did a Google on that:

netsh int tcp set global autotuninglevel=disable

and found this for Vista:

http://www.petri.co.il/improve_windows_vista_network_performance.htm

http://www.speedguide.net/faq_in_q.php?qid=247

If it worked for you without booting, then great, but the first article does say to do so before it is taking effect.

Re: Can't Upload Tasks

Yes, the trick works on Vista but it works fine also for Windows 7... and with 7 works without reboot.

Re: Can't Upload Tasks

I'm having the same problem. I've rebooted the computer; restarted BOINC, updated the project, and retried sending. This is the second time in a couple of weeks this has happened and yet, never before on this project or SETI. I was finally advised via a message to delete it. Now I'm having another issue with another wu that was due 3/23.

¿Que pasa?

Re: Can't Upload Tasks

Dedonut,

Which work unit is failing and which WCG research project is it from? Can you post the relevant section of the messages log from when the upload is attempted?

Just as a guess without more information, you might also try the solution suggested in this thread (from advanced view, Activity -> Network Activity Suspended -> wait a minute -> Activity -> Network Activity Always Available
