Download - Calculating Speed And Time Left (Progress Bar)
Feb 5, 2011
I created a software which download files from the web. I also added a progress bar which shows the download progress. Every thing works fine.
Now:
- How can I add a label that will calculate the time left for the file to be downloaded and another label that will tell the speed of the download?
- Would it also be possible to add a label which calculates the size of the file that is begin downloaded?
Here is what I declared:
Imports System.Net
Public Class Form1
Dim WithEvents Download As New WebClient
Dim WithEvents Download1 As New WebClient
Friend WithEvents Label1 As System.Windows.Forms.Label
Here is what I have under the download button:
Download.DownloadFileAsync(New Uri("URL" & ComboBox1.Text & ".rar"), Textbox1.Text & "" & ComboBox1.Text & ".rar")
And here is what I have under Download_DownloadProgressChanged:
ProgressBar1.Value = e.ProgressPercentage
Label1.Text = e.ProgressPercentage & "%"
If ProgressBar1.Value = 100 Then
MsgBox("Download Completed!", vbInformation, "Info")
Label1.Text = "0%"

I made a sort of downloader program in Visual Basic 2010, and it downloads okey. It reports the full size of the file, and how much that has been downloaded right now and the percentage.
But, a function that i am missing is to show the user how much time is left on the current downloading. I have searched for it, but i couldn't find any solution that would work.I should also mention that i use a webclient for the actual downloading part.

Well an alternative way is by just showing the connection speed which is:
Dim AllNetConn() As NetworkInterface = NetworkInterface.GetAllNetworkInterfaces
Dim IntConnSpeed As Integer = AllNetConn(0).Speed / 1024
Dim StrConnSpeed As String = IntConnSpeed & " Kbps"

But i need something more specific like the download/upload speed.. I know that i could make my program download a file with the size of 100kb and measure how much time it took to download but i dont know how to measure the time...

Is it possible to control the download speed in vb.net
For example if the client downloading speed is 45kb per sec can i change to 40kb per sec.
i want this to only effect my application and not the web browser or any other applications.

i have a program that calculate a download and up load speed for internet , and i'm doing this by the following for download
1. but the whole code in a timer with interval 1 second
2. calculate the total byte recieved and store it in a variable (s)
3. calculate the new value of total byte received and store it in (s1)
4. s2=s1-s
5. s2 represent the difference in an interval within 1 second is that a download speed ?
i test it with downloading some files from internet using mozilla firefox the values is so close to each other but is that the right way to measure the speed ???

I have a ftp download in a background session that updates to a progressbar, file download takes about 2 minutes and it works great, gives me the length that has been downloaded, total size, and the bytes remaining.I thought it would be cool to have the speed show as well but not sure I have all the info to work with, or how exactly to do it. This is my loop, and what I do have works fine just want to have the speed show as well if possible:[code]

[Code] How i think that this should work: 1. Getting the size of the file that we want to download and updating the progressbar max value to that 2. Downloading the file and updating the progress-bar based on how much data its downloaded.
