| One connection can be used only to get one resource at a time. Most
browsers
| to speed up loading of pages opens some additional connections to the
server
| to get more than one resource (image, CSS file, JS file etc.) at a time.
| If the count of connections opened by the prowser exceeds the server
limits
| (server returns error code stating that) then the browser should decrease
it,
| but most browsers do not - they treat the error code like any other error
| code, which means that the browser shows the image as unavailable. It does
| not matter if the browser keeps the opened connections (reuses them) or
| not because the count of requests processed at the same time is the true
| limit.

|
| Browser settings or server settings? The first one should be changed first
| to check if it's really the cause. If you are sure that that's it, then
| check the server settings (there can be more than one parameter involved
| like total limit, limit on connections from same host etc.).
