Re: Can't download ROMs?

Thanks for visiting, and thanks for reporting this too.  I took a peek and my download stalled too so I suspect it's a connection limit.  I bumped it up and a few seconds later my download started.

Lately I've seen download resuming abused by people using multiple IPs to download a single file.  That uses a bunch of connections so bumping up the connection limit should help for now.  It's likely not malicious but that's also how a DDoS attack behaves, so perhaps I should investigate DDoS protection.

Hi, first of all I'd like to say thanks for keeping this site up. Can't get Nintendo ROMs anywhere else these days so I really appreciate it.

I've been trying to download ROMs but when I click on the Download button it just kind of stalls forever like it's loading something. Then, when I try to download something else, it gives me an error message and asks me to wait for my current download to finish before starting another one, but the ROMs aren't being downloaded.

I've tried this on SNES and GBA games, with the same results. Has this been an ongoing issue?
