Hmm...my downloads are working at the moment I have to say. However, it ain't always so and I get many of the same issues already described from time to time. The common thread to me seems to be...Firefox 16.0.1

 

Mind you since I hollered at BT and got my Homehub (router) replaced it has been a lot better so maybe router issues can be a factor?

 

My favourite culprit is still Firefox though, it has been very quirky of late, took me all my time to batter it into submission in regards to saving passwords.

 

I do not have a router, and i also reinstalled firefox, it didnt help. But what DOES seems to help is repeatedly (rapidly) pressing the F5 (refresh) key every half second. Cause waiting for that empty/blank white screen to load doesn't work. And as many others have said it isn't limited to just one server or a certain mod

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one having this problem, though obviously not everyone is having it either.

 

I can't download anything. At all. Not with NMM, and not manually. NMM tries the 1-10 times before giving up, and I get a server error with a manual download. I'm using chrome. I havne't been able to download anything since about 2pm.

Today I noticed that the only time a download would fail in NMM is when I was actively browsing Skyrim Nexus while there was a download in progress within the Mod Manager. I've been able to repeat this failed download process every time I've tried it.

I've had problems like this on and off for the past week. If I click to download a file, sometimes it will say the file was hidden by the author (even though it isn't...), NMM will go through all attempts to download a file and then fail, I am also getting the white error page that was posted earlier in the thread.

I am having download problems as well. They only started in the past few days and has never happened before in the past; I've downloaded dozens of files. The file downloads fine for about a minute and then it stops downloading but the download manager says it's completed. So the file is an incomplete zip/compressed file. I will be downloading a 100MB file that is finished downloading at 17MB. Obviously, winzip/7zip can't open the file because all the data isn't there. I've tried this with both internet explorer and firefox to no avail.

 

Any suggestions?

EDIT:

 

Well, I figured out a workaround. I downloaded the addon for firefox "downthemall!" and was able to download without any problems. Cool add-on by the way.

Having similar problems with downloading. Most files (even a few Kb in size) error out and have to retry them 3-4 times before it downloads. Others keep getting "Server is Busy" messages even after the 10 tries...

 

 

This is with NMM...

I'm getting a ton of 501 errors. If I actually manage to get to the download page for a mod, I then always get an error after choosing a server. That's what the window says "error". No other information. That's with firefox.

 

IE gets 500 internal server errors. Looks like the nexus network is the nexus notwork tonight.
