Speed Limiter v6.62 build 4358

Postby NickA » Thu Jan 28, 2016 3:03 pm

I've been running with version 6.62 for several months now and have noticed that when I activate the speed limiter, it seems to deactivate automatically after around 30 seconds or so. Is this normal behaviour only in past versions that I've used once I clicked the speed limiter button it remains active until I clicked it again? (Which is how I want this version to behave!)

Thanks

Normally this means you turned the scheduler on and it's overriding the speed limit selection. You just need to go into the options and disable it.

Thank you. That worked but I honestly don't remember turning the scheduler on though so I guess it may be turned on by default.

Thanks for your help :)

It can be turned on/off by clicking on one of the fields that are part of the status bar. Not that difficult to do by accident although once you realise it can be done it is easy to keep a watch on the relevant part of the bar to see the current status.

Sorry to bump this but I'm having the same problem.

When I go to "Options --> Settings --> Network" I have "Speed Limiter" checked with it set to the speed I want, nothing else checked (use pause time-out & use speed limit time-out).
