Default connect

I have found that the more files that you share the better your connections will be. I have also found that if you try to connect to the gnutella network at around 7:00 PM your computer will connect. you could also try to restart your computer or defrag your hard drive.

Internet connections at offices, schools and universities are seldom direct connections to the internet that would allow you to create a connection to the Gnutella network.

Try disabling your firewall on port 6346 or ask your network administrator to do it for you.
