Download fails at 315mb every time
I have uploaded 10 1GB files. When people (including me) try to download them they fail at 315mb, every time. Why is this happening?

Ed, it HASN'T been fixed.
I can now download a 406MB file, but that's no good because I'm trying to download a 426MB file!!
Pls can you re-look into this? URGENTLY!!

I'm tring to upload files ranging from 23 MD to 160 MB and DB fails. When are you going to fix this?

Hi Robert,
This issue was fixed last month.
If your files still fail to download but are much smaller than 315MB, it's another issue.
Have you tried on a different browser? If yes, on which browser is the download failing?
Thanks
