What method of downloading are you using? Browser, transmission, a wget command?

That sounds really strange. Reading your first post I assume it always showing that behaviour?

If so, my next step would be the thumbs2 thread.

You might be right!

Well, if you're not afraid of the terminal, you could try to purge and reinstall browserd and see if there is something wrong with that, that could be solved by a reinstall.

Haven't done it for a while but the "normal" procedure would be something along the line of

Code:
apt-get install --reinstall osso-browserd
Something along the line. I don't have my N900 running, but if you run

Code:
apt-cache search browser | grep osso
it should give you the exact packagename you need.

Crail,

If you used | grep osso the amount of files should be limited.
There are probably language files in that list as well. Look for the application descriptor. It should be there.

Coming to think of it, I am not even sure if it is possible for the browserd application.

I fixed a friends osso-rss app with this method.

right it doesn't do it on 3g so ive narrowed it to my wifi router, which was messed around with a couple of weeks ago. (locking some mac address's out) my mrs did it and i haven't got a clue about routers.

has anyone got any idea's?
