The upload speed property sets upload speed, not (directly) the download speed. The number of segments you can be downloading at once is uploadspeed * 2 (at least set as a modem) and AFAIK the download speed for each segment is NOT limited. So if you are downloading slow, try downloading files with a higher score so you can get more segments at a time. (remember, the network is mosty modem users who can't even go 56 Kbps)

2> No way to set the number of files that can be down loaded from you at once. This means that most of the bandwidth goes to lammers that don't share anyways.

3> No way to set the number of users that can be connected to you at once.
One way to set the number of files downloaded from you at once is to tell it you have a modem, you will only upload one file at a time. XoloX has never let a single user download more than one file at a time.

Set as a modem (not sure about broadband) XoloX makes and attempts to maintain exactly four connections with any combination of incoming and outgoing.

you can view your uploads, but you'll have to watch the program to see when people are downloading. Having a log file would be nice, but I dont' really care what people are downloading from me, it's all just bandwidth... unless you want to remove popuar files so fewer people download from you...

Come on XoloX...get yer sh*t together and fix some of this basic stuff so you'll have a good P2P... Get the advanced setttings evolved into your program and you MIGHT have something to be proud of then. But till then I recomend to other users of this product to DUMP IT! and keep on a looking!

There are some bugs, and I tell them so when I find them, but try not to condemn them for their efforts. I think they should be very proud of what they have done so far, if you don't think so try making your own client. I reccommend XoloX to any broadband user, and would only tell someone to dump XoloX if for some reason the program crashes consistantly on their machine.
