Stalled downloads

[Gary999]

Knoppix (Kanotix) are GREAT!!!

Now to my problem,
(I've had this before in Linux. It's back)

Http downloads are stalling in every application I try.
I have been using Downloader for X (D4X) to bring my files down.
(This D4X is great)
But, KGet Firefox, Konqueror, everything else sooner or later stalls out.
(Sometimes I get lucky, mostly not.)
aMule works great!

Where can I look to find out my problem??
I am on Kanotix 2005-2 using a DWL-122 (That works great in WinXP)
The Kanotix site is mostly German and even though I am half German
my Mexican side does not habla Aleman.

What logs or config could give me the magic scoop!!

Please all HELP!!

This is what Kano suggested
(Notice the *off* not just an uncomment)

Maybe disable ipv6 support. Change ipv6 to off in
/etc/modprobe.d/aliases
and run
update-modules
be sure to remove ipv6 from
/etc/modules-$(uname -r)
too, it in there. Then try a reboot.

Like this:
alias net-pf-10 off


Also another gentleman suggested:

Konqueror is a killer browser, unfortunately it is crippled by a well-known problem with non-ipv6 compliant web sites. It sits there forever while trying to decide between ipv4 and ipv6.

To fix the problem, add the following line in /etc/environment:

KDE_NO_IPV6=true

Restart KDE and enjoy the speed!


After a reinstall and making sure there the * off * was in place
(I think an upgrade to my system may have added IPV6 back in)
and adding the KDE_NO_IPV6=true ,
my networking is not stalling on downloads
and seems back to normal.
