Beuh bye, you are benifiting the network by your leaving, enjoy your switch (I will) :rolleyes:

oh and with UPnP, firewall to firewall transfers, much improve corruption detection, improve transfer methods and download mesh, I HIGHLY doubt that downloads speed CAN be lower in newer versions VS 4.0.8, you are either trolling or did not try enough long. This is laughable. Really.

hey hey.
monkey wrench here.

kinda a bummer that this has devolved to address only the single concern about # of ultra peers.

in my previous list of concerns from the switch to 4.8.1 from 4.8.0,..this item is perhaps least important to me....i have just upgraded to 4.9.4 pro, and while i like some of the changes in features,..my previous issues still persist.

basically,...for over a year BEFORE i switched to 4.8.1/4.9.4 i would leave it up while i went to work, or overnight...and it was not at ALL unusual for 300-500 files to have passed OUT of my system.

so it easy for me to note a change (starting with 4.8.1)...now, when i leave the computer for any length of time...limewire seems to IDOL...resulting in only a handful of outgoing files in the same time periods previously reflecting hundreds of files..

what gives?

the question isnt really about # of ultrapeers,..i would nt care if i were connected to only 1 or 2...that is, if 1 or 2 would WORK!!!!

QUALITY not quantity.
one sad anarchist.
(waaaaaa)

nobody? really?

just happened again,..left the computer with the 'connections' screen up,....walked back into the room and see quite clearly that there is just ONE connection,...and NO VISIBLE ATTEMPT to add connections... not until i moved the mouse (like a screen saver,..but no screen saver engaged.) then it immediately begins to reconnect the additional ultrapeers...

this totally BITES...it isn't a minor problem! it defeats the whole "hands free" beauty of p2p....if i have to walk in and jiggle the mouse in order that those who are downloading from me keep there connections..(these also seem to cut out when this happens.."transfer interrupted")

so now i should be hummin ..just paid for 4.9.4 pro...and i shouldnt have such limpy software....please please does anyone know how this might be addressed?

giggling with frustration,....
