Having Problems Uploading

[Stuart]

I wonder if it is the size or type of the file that is the problem or if
it is corrupt. Rapidshare has a limit of 100Mb and Mediafire 200Mb.

What I would try is, upload a jpg of the same size and see if that gets
through. If so, you could try renaming the mp3 file as a jpg and see if
that uploads, then rename it when it's uploaded. This might bypass any
filtering by BT which could interrupt uploading of mp3s.

I've also tried many times spread through the day. The baffling thing is
it fails so consistently. I did manage to upload a smaller jpeg with no
issues.

oadband+speed+using+a+HomeHub suggests that the Homehub (Assuming that
is what you have) checks for updates in the evening, interrupting any
downloads or uploads at that time.

broadband connection is dropped (for whole wireless network, not just my
computer). The upload then stops as a failure and the network comes back
a short while later.
