Angry Bear drops 56K connections in favor of high speed

Not real happy that I can't maintain a host connection now that bearshare tries to connect to only high speed connections.
56K users are gnutella's backbone. It's time to complain loud and clear, or we will all lose gnutella.
A high speed connection should be able to maintain many 56K connections, since they are low bandwidth. Gnutella hosts should allow more 56K connections than high speed ones on it's list when it knows that it is on a high speed connection.
Some programmers just don't have a clue. Could it be "ego"? "I have high speed, ha ha ha on you!!!"

I think that the superpeers will take care of this problem. but i think why this happens is that higherbandwidth users call for more bandwidth then modems users can provide. so connecting to a t1 with a modem would kill the modem? I think but i really dont know how it works out. I think that requests and pings would DoS the modem

But like i said.. what do i really know?
