NO matter how many connections I Use with GigaNews server I only receive files one a time. Doesnt make sense I can have 47 connections with server and only utilize one at a time.. The other 46 channels populate but no data is sent...

Do I have a setting or switch someplace not set correct?

It is normal to only get one fie at a time if they are multi-part - each connection should be getting a different part of the same file. For single-part files each one connection should get a different file in parallel. What makes you think the that all connections are not being used :?: There can be other reasons or slow downloads than not all connections being used. In fact specifying too many connections can be one of them :!:

One place there is a limitation on using connections is getting headers. When getting headers only a single connection is used for a group (although multiple groups can have their headers fetched in parallel on different connections).
