I just updated to version 2.0 from 1.7. I was able to connect to multiple hosts before, but the new 2.0 only lets me connect to one host...or so it seems. Anyone know what the trick is or am I blind???

I've got the same problem. A related problem is not being able to deactivate "ultrapeer"

Any suggestions?

same problem here it is starting to **** me off also cause i cant find ne movies that i want or rom's.... i dont know what the heck is wrong

Me too. Any answers yet?

I just installed 2.0 on Linux.

I am experiencing the same problem. I can only get one host connection, and am getting terrible search propogation.

I answered this in my post, 'All Connections Problems with 2.0.2... '. Basically the one host connection is a feature, not a bug. It's the vaunted ultrapeer featureset! You are a leaf node, connected to an ultrapeer, which is the one host that you describe. That ultrapeer is like your conduit to gnutella from then on.... any queries you make through it, and any queries from other people (to files that you have) go from it.

And no, it doesn't seem to work well in its current incarnation.

Go back to 1.8.
Until they get there act together on 2.0.
It is a shame because the downloading speed is much better than 1.8 but whats the use if u can only find 10% of what you had before.

It'll help explain what ultrapeer is doing.
