Please be specific in describing your problem for example.

are you sharing from home,work or school?
what type of connection are you using adsl, cable, dial-up?
has uploading worked before? etc.

This would make sense as most ISPs pay a lot of money for traffic that moves of of the network. There are a couple things you could do to validate / invalidate this assumption.
This must be the case. Far too many users are experiencing the same thing. It is either ISP or software related. My ISP says they are not using any type of device or system as you mentioned, so must be software related. So much for Limeware.

i have done everything u have suggested except forcing my ip address into limeware. exaxtly how do i go about doing this? also i have wireless internet ty 4 your help
I am pretty confident that you can download video content however, I think the problem is two-fold 1) it depends on the host you are trying to download from. 2) it depends on WHAT movies you are trying to download. If it is a copyrighted work chances are is being hosted by a company used by the industry MPAA to flood the network with bogus files OR if they are real you won't be able to download them because of the way they've configured the client. This has been discussed in previous posts.

To test this,

Right now there are a significant number of people hosting content that has been produced by me on the gnutella network. you can use any of the following search queries to pull up listings for the content:

cbt mpg
cbt avi
cbt wmv

You should try to download one of the files. If you can then you can download videos / movies


Problem solved.


hope this helps.

Default Thanks to the contributors

Hello to everyone,

I'm a new user to LimeWire so I've spent the last few hours reading over these threads trying to solve some of my problems. I must say that the information that has been provided both directly and indirectly is simply FANTASTIC!!

David91: I don't think that you anticipated that the things you stated back on the 25th of May of 2003 would come to any great use but the web browser link you gave was terrific and I was able to balance things out in my file sharing.

NoKaOi: Mahalo and aloha, Thanks for posting your issues I learned so much from you and David91.

Joff: You're one of the few who actually will "read directions" first before proceeding so in my books that puts you in the "wise" category not the "ignorant" category. Good on you!!

I want to thank each individual for posting their thoughts here. Myself being a "newbie" I had no idea that I was actually hindering results for other users. Now I leave my connection on 24/7. Because of the various statements that have been posted I have now become committed as a registered user of LimeWire to provide the best upload source I can. And if I may use your statement 'stupididiot69er' "You get what you give (this goes for downloading too)" and may I add to that "uploading"--it's a two way street.

BTW--Thanks Lee for the hard work you have put into answering the problems that have arisen and maintaining patience.

WR

Post No Thank you

No, thank you White Raven. It's refreshing to know that there are still some some users who will take the time to actually read through the threads before posting. In fact it is even more rare that after doing so someone would drop a line to thank those that participated.

For that, I think that you deserve a big thanks and good luck.

Default ip address

K, i set up my port forwarding, did everything with my Windows firewall and everything else everyone suggested. I'm still lucky to get 2KB/s on downloads and about the same upload rate. I'm working off a T1 at school and usually can get about 350-400 KB/s (I'm no noob, I know the dif. between bits/bites). My sh*t is fast. I'm at school and the guy next door to me gets 60-70 KB/s downstream through his gnutella p2p program. I get excited when i break 5. Someone please help me out, I'm using Limewire 4.2.6 on XP Pro SP2 (It came pre-installed, f'n Dell). Couldn't find anything describing putting my ip address in LW, I'm far from an expert on that topic and I didnt know if changing my LAN settings would do the trick. Someone hook me up, I've been waiting a good 3 weeks to see Boondock Saints.

Thanks,
C
