<< i get your ip is banned >>

So do I. I'm behind a ADSL router with NAT. I've never used this software before, maybe it's time to RTFM. :-)

Walle,

Since you got us all interested here, is there any chance you could explain to us how we should proceed?

is this manual the famous "technical manual" (bookshop manual)? or it's simply the pdf version of owners manual?

how big is this file?
cnerone

Hi all!

"ferm.no-ip.com" is only for 10mbit users. What connections are you having? What hubs can you join? Give me a hub name and i will give you access through that.

/Walle
walle

hub?
im not sure, is there no other way? how big is the file? to big to email.
do you not have a irc channel walle? maybe we could meet you in there and dc it then.
that would be easier.

cheers

It’s a scan file of the MGF manual and is about 30 Meg big. Contact me on ICQ (10844372) and I will send it to you.
I might regret this but I thing that all MGF owners shall have the opportunity to read the manual.

Regards,

Walle

Many many thanks to Walle fir his help and patience in getting this manual... thanks once again Walle :)

Hello, this is Dumbo again! What does "contact me on ICQ (10844372)" mean ???

Regarding the question of which "hub" I can join, I don't seem to be able to join any, I get disconnected straight away ...

I feel like Manuel in Faulty Towers...

Per (<--- hopelessly in need of help)
Per

walle,
I'm not able to connect to hubs ("your IP is banned"), how to solve this problem?

I'm using dial-up connection (by libero.it, computer is connected to internet all the night).




an other question:
this manual is the owners manual or technical manual?

cnerone

Hi, try download it from Kazaa, the name is "MGF Manual workshop" and the size is about 472MB

bye Joao

cnerone

Hi!


<this manual is the owners manual or technical manual?>

"cnerone"
Do you have ICQ?

"Per"
Check you e-mail!

regards,

Walle

walle

there used to be a file called "RAVE MG Rover" on kazaa but I only managed to download about a third before it disappeared.
MGF owner

Walle, I'm connected to [Light tm]Sweden, as that is one I could get connected to, now I need to find the file.
Would have connected to you through ICQ, could not get it to work though.

Johan Slagter

walle,

I try to contact you by icq (are you Magnus?) but you are offline.

(I'm connected to internet from 21:00 to 8:00, by dialup connection, I'm using the fallowing hub: superhubstore.no-ip.org)
cnerone

Cnerone, send me your e-mail adress.

Johan
Johan Slagter

I sent my email address to you by email.

Hi
cnerone

"mgf manual workshop" is available through Kazaa and possibly gnutella, but not all the time. Will stay available, hopefully
Johan
Johan Slagter

Hm, tried the Direct Connect software. Encountered some difficulties with "IP address banned". Darn network security...

Walle, I would appreciate if you could send me a copy direct per e-mail as well. Semms to be the easiest way.

Thanks!

/Ronny
Ronny Peschel

it's too big to send by email
cnerone

walle
why don't you connect to superhubstore.no-ip.org?
ronny, thi server need few shared file

(ronny, you share too few file to connect to some hubs, so you receive "banned ip")
cnerone

walle
I found you in icq, but you don't answer to my contacting tring.

cnerone

I'm sorry, don't get me wrong but this mad 'unregistered' thread *drives me nuts*.

Why don't you just buy what you need or deal by Email ?

Me bought, all the other did. (I hope so) ;)

Dieter <-- bored
Dieter K.

sorry Dieter.
What you have said is right. I search to contact walle because it said we can download from his pc.

I have a OT question for you:
can you supply me the mirror electrical diagram about Rover 200?
(in your site there is the mgf one)
or do you know where/how have I to look for?
cnerone

Lets put this one to bed.

Log onto www.winmx.com and download MGF Manual.

It will be available until tomorrow morning - its 484Mb zipped so I hope you have broadband.
Supplier

cnerone

If you ever get a copy of the MGR Rave CD it will include Mini, MGF, Rover 100, Rover 200, Rover 400, Rover 600, Rover 800, Cabriolet/coupe/Tourer but will exclude the MGF/TF.
JohnP

It's on Kazaa as well
Johan Slagter

I've got a 56k dial-up connection
cnerone

why in kazaa and winmix? and not in gnutella or napster?
cnerone

Cnerone,

I hate to say it but your wasting everybody's time here if you only have a 56K modem. It'll take you days to download it. Do us all a favour and buy it off Ebay.
David Clelland

I have a flat connection so I can stay connected all nights (from 21:00 to 7:30). I've dowloaded divx as big as a CD can contain. So I think, if there are somebody stay always connected (for other motives) I can download it too.

While I'm waiting for you I look for it in ebay.

Hi
cnerone

Johan Slagter!

Didnīt find it. I searcht for "MGF" "MGF Manual" and so on but i didnīt find it in winmx or kazaa. Help me!

/J
Jonas

non entries found in ebay for "mg rave" or "mgf manual"
cnerone

cnerone,

Try this address:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2412287101&category=18429
David Clelland

available only for UK. I'm in italy
cnerone

Jonas,

I can assure you that it's on Winmx.

Log on to www.winmx.com Download their software and log on. Search for mgf manual and download it.

It's a zipped file of about 480Mb and should take about 4 hours at broadband speed. A LOT longer at dialup speeds
David Clelland

sorry,
I cannot run winmx nor kazaa.
only directconnect, napster, gnutella
cnerone

cnerone,

e-mail the seller. Ask him if he'll send you one to Italy. I think he just assumes that his market is in the UK.
David Clelland

cnerone

I'm sure you told us that you have a TF? The Rave CD stops before the TF was introduced so is of no use to you anyway.
JohnP

mgtf is very similar to mgf, so something about mgtf can be seen by rave cd
cnerone

If someone wants to upload this file to a Server i have space to host this file so anyone can download it without installing any special software. All i need is the file. E-mail me at richard@squarecows.com if you can help
R Harvey

I think this is a usefull thing
cnerone

It will be available on Kazaa and morpheus the next couple of nights. (Is morpheus on the gnutella network)

Johan Slagter

Name for file is "mgf manual workshop.zip"
Johan Slagter

Johan, Any idea of time (UK time) and I will adjust for Aussie (Eastern Standard Time). Tks
John Meyer

pete

John, this is about nighttime in UK
Johan Slagter

pete,
I installed emule in my pc, I looked globally for "mg rave".
I have found nothing.

why?
cnerone

Try extending the search.
Leigh

Ok, I have found it.

I know english better than franch lang. So, I havo not decided to download it.

thanks anyway
cnerone

Johan could you post the manual today on Kazaa?
pat

Yep, tonight
Johan Slagter

I would like to download the manual to if poss - I have got both Wimx and Kazaa + broadband!

Thanks,
Roger
R Johnson

Ditto your comments Roger. I have been trying since this thread started and have not once managed to log on when anyone with an MGF manual is. Luck of the draw I suppose :( Anyway I will continue to check on Kazaa each morning 8:00pm GMT and see what luck I have. Just a question to Kazaa gurus who have managed to locate the manual - any search technique hints...perhaps I am doing something wrong. Cheers all, John
John Meyer

john you may soon have mail

What is a Kazza (as opposed to a Kasi) - I did ask this question some time back but got no reply!

Another plea for the MGF manual, I check regularly on WinMx but with no luck [sigh] any assistance greatfully received:)
C Ashworth

Has anybody considered buying a Workshop Manual from an MGR dealer or a specialist like Brown & Gammon?

There seem to be a lot of people who are desperate for a manual, presumably because they are waiting to carry out some work on their car, but seem happy to hang on (in this case the thread has been running for 15 days now) rather than do the normal and buy one.

I bought my manual from B&G the week I bought my F so that I could learn a bit more about the car and be prepared in the event of problems.

I also bought a copy of the RAVE CD for the princly sum of Ģ7.99 from somebody on eBuyer. I suspected that it was a "pirate" copy but good value anyway. I can now sit and read the book and print individual pages from CD rather than get the book too dirty (when I sell the car I would like the book to look as though I never had any problems).
JohnP

Come on you guys, if you have the file share it on winmx ( if the dealer price was reasonable I would buy it, but being a Scotsman I hate to be ripped off)
Gordon

I'll leave my computer on tonight (from about 5pm) connected to Winmx. It'll be switched off tomorrow morning however since I'm going away from the weekend. BTW I have broadband and the file you are all looking for is 484Mb
David Clelland

Would have been quicker writing it by hand, sending it by mule and awaiting reply by carrier pigeon LOL
D Jamieson

Thanks David, I have approx 30% so far so hopefully I can connect and complete the download. (BRG MGF 741)

Best Regards

Yeah, Found the file on Winmx for the first time since started trying. 14.4k modem running at 2.7kbs It will probably take me between 9 and 30hrs but little bit by little bit we'll get there...I hope. I will keep trying and if a cable/broadband connection raises its head I'll jump on it. Tks again to all
John Meyer

John,

If you want I'll leave my computer on overnight again for the next few nights (from about 5pm uk time).
David Clelland

David please DO!

I have a 10 mbit connection and i will wait untill the slowconnection (14.4k should be on a museum!!!) are finisch.

nils

File online now.......winmx
Gordon

What the name of the file? I search for "mg", "manual", "workshop" no luck!!!
nils

"MGF Manual" is the one on Winmx
David Clelland

For the zip file make sure you click on the MP3 Audio-Any Bitrate button and select Archive from the list before you do your search or you will not find it.
