reply to moderator Received incoming this session: false in bug report. Was able to connect a little this time, but relatively poorly compared to normal. Was able to download one song with many sources, otherwise hardly anything will connect at all, and then only at very low speeds.
I have a motorola surfboard cable modem SB4200E, 2 mbit connection which I've verified yesterday to be at least 1.7 mbit in reality, mac 500 mhz g4 running newest system, newest java, newest limewire. my hub is a nexswitch SD050s.
It's been unstable off and on, often crashing at night when the computer was idle other than limewire. I did install Firefox right before it dropped out completely, but uninstalled it and limewire and reinstalled limewire, plus installed limewire on another machine in my home network and got the same result. The network connections fluxuated a bit before they really bottomed out.
The best I've been able to get was
Current Hosts 3
Total Hosts 111
total files 36,330
total file MBs 93,981
The top of the program never shows me how many mb or files since this began, only Enabling open information sharing.
Today, it seems a little better, I'm able to download a few items, but only if they have a high nr of sources. Generic searches such as mpg or avi or mp3 return far fewer files than normal. |
