Jesus what hootie was trying to say is he/she is downloading at very slower rate than before no matter what connection he/she is downloading from. I think that is what he/she need help on.

And I'm still having a problem with number of sources to download from for one file. It seem no matter what, I can't get any more than 6 sources for a single file no matter how many sources are available. Can you please help me with that?

deafguy: Leeware was not answering in response to Hootie's question.

For Hootie ... I'd suggest you check the rest of the forums on how to optimise your settings or at least start off with deleting your LW Preferences folder whilst LW is closed; instructions here: Fixes for Limewire So you can start afresh almost so to speak. Also see: A well set-up LW can start to automatically continue its dwnlding after it's settled down perhaps 2 out of 3 times you open LW. Optimising LW & Maximising Uplds & Dwnlds A (1st post only) & also Part B which is even better & last & least are search & dwnld hints. The latter one I've been thinking about re-writing for some time. That's just for playing it safe. eg- I show all speeds & qualities.

eg: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...028#post116028

deafguy for your problem I can assure you that you'd get much much better results if other people were uploading from you. Even vary your shared files so there's different types there from one week or month to the next so you get different types of people with different links to help you with your results. Yes uplding helps search & downld results. And no you'e not going to get max # of sharers if their connection quality is poor or their upload slots are full!

What do I do in opition so that people can better uploading from me?
