I guess our routers and modem have rested long enough from auto reconnect and now we have to start doing that again. If you didn’t notice, RapidShare has RE-introduced download limits for free users again. This means that there is a wait time before we can continue downloading then next file from RapidShare when we’ve just finished downloading one.
From what I tested, when I wanted to download a 200MB file from RapidShare, I had to wait for 99 seconds before I can start downloading and when I’ve completed downloading, I had to wait for 15 minutes before I can download the next file. I got the message “You have reached the download limit for free-users. Would you like more? Get your own premium account now! Instant download access! Or try again in about 15 minutes.”
I then tried downloading a 10MB file, had to wait 30 seconds first then after finished downloading, same thing, I am required to wait for 15 minutes before I can download the next file. 15 minutes wait time is not really long compared to previous restriction but it can be annoying when we’re left with only a few files to complete downloading the whole package. To beat the 15 minutes restriction, here are some third party auto reconnect RapidShare download managers which I’ve previously recommend that you can use.
One thing I couldn’t understand on RapidShare is the constant changing of their rules. Just a week ago they claimed that they have upgraded their infrastructure to increase the speed in downloading and upload. When traffic is low, the free users can download or upload at the speed of 2 megabit per second! But during high traffic, the speed can drop to as low as 0.2 megabit per second. I still remember that many months ago I could download from RapidShare at full speed but required to wait for an hour to download the next file. A week ago, they limited the download speed but removed the waiting period. Now, they limited the download/upload speed AND added waiting period. I don’t know about you but it sure pisses me off…
To beat the 15 minutes RapidShare wait time, we need to change our external IP address which we get from our ISP. Most of us have dynamic IP address that changes whenever we disconnect and reconnect. For those with static IP address that IP never changes and wants to download from RapidShare without limits for free, you can either use proxy which is slow and unstable or find a working rapidshare premium link generator.
There are a lot of rapidshare downloaders nowadays but I am only going to talk about two famous 3rd party rapidshare download manager which you might already know. CryptLoad and jDownloader.
CryptLoad is able to reconnect your internet connection using Modem, Router, or Start file method. The modem method is when you use dial up connection. As for Router, it uses CLR script to auto connect to your router to reconnect your connection. You can refer to this help page on how to create your own CLR file. Start file method is when you need to run external file such as Macro recordings, batch files and etc. You can access these settings by running CryptLoad, go to Options, and click the Router icon.

jDownloader is my latest favorite RapidShare downloader. I actually stopped using CryptLoad for a while now and has been using only jDownloader. I’d say that jDownloader is more advanced and has more options. jDownloader supports LiveHeader/Curl, External file, Batch script, and even CyptLoad’s CLR script! To access the reconnect options in jDownloader, you can either hit F11, click Advanced Configuration and click on the Reconnect tab, or Extras > Configuration > Advanced Configuration > Reconnect.

I download a lot of stuff, and paying $22 to download 150 full dvd quality movies is a price i’m willing to pay. You’re already stealing by downloading the pirated stuff, and you expect a firm to allow you to use their service for free?? Come on. I grew out of expecting everything for free, cos it just won’t last. Rapidshare provides an excellent service for its premium users at affordable rates. The others, e.g. netload,filefactory,mediafire,depositfiles are just loaded with ads and crap while rapidshare has no ads even for free users. STOP COMPLAINING>
‘megaupload, mediafire, fileflyer etc. are much better alternatives!’
I agree. Rapidshare is far to slow and im fed up.!!!!
no doubts this is the best rapidshare premium link generator

Ya its true……….. But the jdownloader doing it’s job smothly……… So its my favorites……… Thanx Ray…
Yeah, I agree that RS is very manipulative and should be shutdown. However, people still upload great files there, so I’ll be happy with my premium account. It’s really cheap considering all the files I download…
thanks God I finally found someone worried about RS free users —- last few days I tried to find something and nothing until today with your article
thanks a lot Ray!!!!

nice site
Some people will never change because some of them of have already wasted money on a premium account and love to pump their accounts based of free user hits.
I call them Scumloaders they are the same people that repack small files with random rubbish files to inflate their premium points.
The staff at Rapidshare always find a new way to stoop to a new level of filth.
Rapidshare sucks. I use mediafire only. Its time everyone do the same and they crack.
This is very good info tho share, thank
Raymond, kepp a good work, :-)
Thanks f1tzy
Netload ftw.Between 1-2 MB/s as a free user+greasemonkey script,on my pc,i download a 700MB movie in 2 parts in 8minutes with one reconnect,while rapidshare i barely get 200kb/s.
Rapidshare should be put to rest… plain and simple its garbage and always will be garbage.
The only reason why rapidshare is so dominant today is because people still use it, if we all stop using it they will down scale and possibly disappear and considering the constant flip flop decisions being made I would say it would be a blessing.
A little bit of consistency would be nice.
Hey mate, how these few sites help out also!
