download problems To answer the "Force Resume" button problem;
I am using LimeWire Pro 2.2.4 on WindowsME OS.
I have cable modem connection, ( althought
it doesn't act like it = very slow! ) This is the
behavior I have found with the "Force Resume"
button:
When you select a file for download and the status
returns something to the affect as, Waiting
Busy 59s blah blah .. and you press the "force
Resume" button, it will work. However, if you
press the "Force Resume" button when the download
status indicates "Requery Sent, Waiting ###s
for Results", the Force Resume button DOES NOT
WORK! So the Force Resume button only seems
to work if the file you want to download is busy.
So I would like to ask the LimeWire developers,
is the Force Resume Button suppose to work in
this manner or is it broken? I would preferr the
"Force Resume" button to work in both instances
(Busy and Requery ..).
To Address the Slower then SH*T downloads ...
As I stated above, I have Cable Modem and most
of the time I have very slow downloads. I usually
get 0.8Kps to 3Kps download speed. I share over
500 files with the Gnutella network and I have
set the Upload Bandwidth up to 20KB/s ( it is
usually 10KB/s) and I set my maximum Upload Slots
to 10. So this should leave me plenty of band-
width left to have a fast download.
BTW: I have tested my transfer rate from
internet test sites and I usually
get 300-500KB/s speed for download and uploads.
I have also
disabled Ultrapeer Capabilities, and still I
get very slow downloads ( that's WHEN I get a
download to work). I also only allow the limewire
and gnutellanet.com connections which should
help the speed, but it doesn't. So what to do?
BTW: I also used Audiogalaxy as my primary
music download app. I was very spoiled. And I
miss Audiogalaxy A LOT!
