The download appears in the list on the „Downloads” tab. Find finished downloads After a download, NZBGet checks, repairs and unpacks the files by itself. You see finished downloads on the „History” tab. If a download failed, the „Failure” filter on the „History” tab shows it. On the Felhom dashboard, the „Where do I put my files?” part of NZBGet's „Data and backup” tab opens the downloads folder in the File manager. Slow down or pause If your home internet gets slow, you can limit or stop the download. Select the speed display at the top: the „Speed Limit” window opens. Type the limit in KB/s and select „Set limit”. To pause, select the play button in the header. In the menu of the arrow next to that button, under „Pause for...”, you can also pause for a set time. When nothing downloads NZBGet itself writes down what is wrong. Open the „Messages” tab and select the „Error” filter. If it says there is no news server, enter your provider in the „News-Servers” part of the „Settings” tab. If the provider refuses the sign-in, check the username and password there. Frequently asked questions Where do I get NZB files? That is your choice: the box neither provides nor suggests a source. Download only what you have the right to, for example a Linux installer. Does the box connect it to Sonarr and Radarr? No: the box connects Sonarr and Radarr to the torrent download clients only. NZBGet works on its own with the NZB files you add. Where do I see the sign-in password? On the Felhom dashboard, on NZBGet's „Settings” tab. The username is admin. I want the interface in another language. Can I change it? NZBGet follows your browser's language. In the menu of the settings button at the top right, you can choose another language under „Language”. Does the download stop if I close the page? No: the download runs on the box, so you can close the page. Documentation Official documentation ↗
