Hello,
I am trying to upgrade my system and through our corporate
firewall/network filters/etc, the bandwidth is limited. Today while
doing an upgrade, yum was downloading five packages at a time.
Have you visited "man yum.conf" yet?
There's lots of stuff about bandwidth throttling and stuff like that
in it:
max_connections
The maximum number of simultaneous connections. This
overrides
the urlgrabber default of 5 connections. Note that there
are also implicit per-mirror limits and the downloader
honors these too.
Yes I did. I was in a rush and missed the max_connections. I was
trying to read it on my phone. When I was reading the manual, I never
thought of connections as a way of limiting the number of packages being
downloaded at once. Problem is you get focused on packages and forget
that it is a connections issue.
That is what I am looking for.
Thank you.
Now to go to work and see if I pissed off the admins by trying to
download overnight with the hope that the throttling was lifted overnight.

Hello,
I did everything suggested and still no success.
Talked to IT and they feel it is a firewall issue. After 400K to 500K,
the bandwidth is throttled to 0.3B/sec.
Thank you tall all that made suggestions.
