I have Verizon Fios and I'm having alot of problems with gnutella. I was using bearshare and the performance was getting worse and worse. Certain files never work or the download will start and run slowly and then die. I find that small files work more often. Also if I were to que up maybe 50 large files and then leave my computer on for a day or two eventually I get some of them but not all.
I thought perhaps the version of bearshare was outdated so I tried limewire (which I also know to be clean of spyware - bonus) but limewire doesn't work at all. I pick files with lots of sources and a four star quality but ti doesn't matter. They just sit there for every and either never connect or say more sources needed which it never finds. I never see any uploads going out either. Bearshare always worked with uploads disabled or if I enabled it a ton of files would upload just fine. If I turn the search monitor on in limewire I see incoming searchs and I can search files but that's all I can do.
I have a routed but my p2p computer is set as the DMZ.
What I don't understand is if all they're doing is blocking the port why I can't just change it and have it work. I've tried changing the ports in limewire but it doesn't work.
Does anyone have any ideas?
