(moderation:
There has to be something obvious I'm overlooking, but on 1 particular machine (Athlon 64) which in the past would alway have 25 or 30 jobs "ready to run", now only gives me 1 job ready to run other than the one that is running. I haven't made in changes in preference other than increasing the number of days between connections which has always been set to 3, to se if that might make a difference. It's now set back to 3 days.
With only 1 job ready to run, the machine usually finishes all work during the night and the machine sets idle unless I try to stay connected to the net all night with a dialup connection.
Is there any way to get more work ready to run in order to prevent running out of work overnight?

I suggest that you check the server logs for that host, and see what requests it is making (how many seconds of work) and how many results it is getting sent, and why. You can find the logs by clicking on the link labeled 'Last Contact' in the list of 'Your computers'.
