I am the hoster of the aforementioned mentioned links for the MachoNet files.
For ALL information related to downlaoding these files, see
visit tardz website here: Tardz MachoNet thread by CJ
or the link to the thread that is inside that thread. I won't be checking this thread because well i'm just too lazy.
I'll be continuing to host these files on a day to day basis for a while, but i hope for those that have this problem, the situation is fixed soon.

Basically, it's the same link as all the others above, which all point to the same thing.

Yeah i've been doing it for like a week now.
I'm kinda surprised that there's been no official eve response into this thread, like from an forum mod or whatever. I'm not complaining, i'm doing this just out of the kindness of my heart. Although out of the .. 200 people so far who i've tracked downloading my file, only like a handful have even said THANKS /me frowns.
I just hope eve has actually realised that all the pertitions from people are actually one 'specific' problem and not individual or random.
Oh well, just my luck to get stuck into doing a thankless job like this.
/me inserts other emo stuff.
Further; those of you who actually get your problem fixed (and i mean properly), make sure you leave a note in here so we can be updated on how/why/when etc. etc.
Cheers, and as always, you know what thread to look for for downloads.

Firstly, I think... that if ccp doesn't realise that this is a larger picture, I think it's probably only because they 'may' be seeing it as lots of little individual problems. Hopefully by this stage I think people should give credit to ccp to believe that i'm sure they've realised that it's a larger problem (well you'd hope so after a thread this long)
The other thing I thought i'd note, is i've had about.. if i subtract the figure by how many days there have been, my original figure of 200 turns out to be around 50 or so. of people downloading each day. Now is this 50 the same 50 each day? is it part the same group, and part another? If it's max 50, that means there could also be others out there that simply haven't found this thread. On the whole though, it isn't alot of people, and ccp just probably has their hands full with problems that affect 5000 people instead of 50. So I think we should relax a little and not jump on the RARR KILL CCP bandwagon, I'm not bagging out those of you who are complaining, hell, if i was , i wouldn't be hosting these files for you for FREE. I've just had a programmming/design background so I can understand that sometimes there's just not enough time.
If the latter is correct though, I have a thought that should rectify the situation while they work on a fix; ccp could 'easily' do what i'm doing. Host a machonet folder somewhere on eve-online, while they try and get a solution. It would be VERY simple enough to make the process automated so that it happened instantly without human input. I'm just too naive to realise that it's probably only the forum mods, and nobody from ccp at all who'll be reading this.
Regardless, i have about 120gb of bandwidth accross 3 domains, so i'll be continuing to raise the flag each night.
As always, your first point of refference is: My Tardz Thread about MachoNet Download
Cheers, fly safe, and other boring stuff like that.

Don't forget, if your problem gets resolved, let us know. I personally have never had this problem, and i doubt i ever will not having a router, but I'd be curious to actually see what's going on.

I'd wager a guess, that this close to a new build release, like Kali. That problems like this that need actual dev/coders to rewrite stuff, would be allocated a very small amount of time. Just an unfortunate happening. I'm sure they are aware of this and are working on it, i have faith in ccp, they've done ok by me for the past 3 years. They're probably just a TINY bit too busy. I know it's not much comfort to you guys right? Everybody wants their problem to have priority, but i think that's the 'issue', a few too many problems, new builds coming out, and not enough manpower. Let's be patient again, i'll keep upping the files and keeping discussions going, and we'll see how we go.
Also; yarrr. Here be monsters (pointless comment)

Thanks for the updates, keep them coming, i had some reports that some people were getting fixed, and others aren't.
Also, as Sgt Storm said, i've narrowed down the file to 2mb or so now. Much easier to Download.
Also, new update for today uploaded.
Cheers

There's some very varying responses here, but so far it looks like nobody has an official 'you're fixed' response.
Also, for 2 days there has been a shorter version of the download, 2mb, and if that coincides with the stuffing up of some people who can't get agents, mail etc. I'll look into it.
I'll be calculating some stats also to see where the trend is going and who is downloading it, how many. I can't keep it up forever though, As always; post in here if you have any information.

Just so you guys know, if the client needs to be updated, the process of acquiring bulk data (especially if you've removed your machonet folder) can take minutes and minutes. So be sure to actually let it wait out if you're having trouble. Also, I hope the newer sized version worked a bit better last night.

This should be good, i'm going on holiday in 3 weeks (for a month). And won't be at my pc (obviously).
So... that's sure to be an interesting time isn't it.

The fact that some people are experiencing this problem without a router confuses me.
Because i'm fairly sure, from my background in similiar problems that this is packet related. Blocked, incomplete, perhaps even destionation never being recieved. And I know for a FACT that some people have stopped receiving the problem once they disabled router / pc firewalls. So that's a local issue, but some aren't. Confusing.
As always guys, my linky to my download page is.... Here

ok to all those sharing an machonet folder, you are risking your accounts security and we will not be responcable if anything happends to your account.
If this is supposed to insinuate something then the free hosting of the machonet files i've been doing for a month or whatever, I don't want to get into trouble for helping people, so i think i'll just stop and let the pros deal with it.
Takes a load of work off my chest.

They said it because making sure people don't bring up cases of computer hacking against them is more important that like a hundred or so people not playing. They are a business after all.

I guess out the solution.
Buyed a new router. Eve working fine with DI-524.
You know, I might be inclined to try that if I was positive it would work. Tomorrow marks the fourth week I've been having this problem. Probably would have cancelled my subscription by now if not for Jinx. I think CCP owes him a free month or two...for doing their job for them.
HA! Thanks for the kind words, but after all the work i did to help them and you guys, and being the only person who didn't actually complain to ccp; my reward instead was being condemned for my help.
Typical.
