I am running 4.2.6 on W2k over cable modem with a NAT router. When I first brought up LW, searches to all appearances worked fine. But my completion rate wasn't good, and my uploads few and far between. So I "Forced IP" (still not sure what that is), then locked internal IP and port forwarded through the router.

Cool! Suddenly my completion % jumps way up, lots of uploads (I had to limit), and I started seeing lots more queries, suggesting that I'm meshing with the other peers much better.

The problem is that my search results have gone to hell. I would (before port forwarding) search on '***'songs and get like 250 hits. Now I get 20!

Search on 'Mozart' and get 8 (EIGHT!? *I'm* serving more than that!) hits. 'Les C***l' used to get about 175. Now maybe 10. 'M***y B***s' == 1 ONE bloody hit.

What the heck is going on?
