Hello thxpir@te,

The "servers" (peers or ultrapeers) you see are your contact with the network.
They handle your searches and point out to you where a download can be found.
The number of ultrapeer connections has little influence on your download speed, unless you have a 56K or ISDN connection.

But to give a good answer to your question, you should tell what Client (Limewire ?) you are using, what connection you have to the Internet, if you use a router, and give info about your computer PC, Mac ?
