Default speed

When I am looking at my search results and see a file that has a speed that says "T3 or higher" does that mean he wiill not send files to anyone slower than T3? Or is that his speed?

I found 4 files this afternoon that says speed T3 or Higher. I clicked on them to download and they have just been sitting there doing nothing since about 8 hours ago. Other files have downloaded ... 1 was modem and the other was Cable/dsl. I have DSL.

Thanks, folks.

T3 means that host's speed. The colours also give more info (green is probably verified). See your LW's help menu for the link to the "Using LimeWire" details on 'Searching.'

If the T3 results are 'stuck', a "repeat search" can sometimes refresh the download. Too, those hosts are often very busy.

cheers

Thanks for the quick reply. I've re-searched several times with no luck. So I KILLED THE DOWNLOADS, started search from scratch to be sure the files were still up and restarted downloading and then just went off and left it for about3 hours .. no movement.

Thanks, again.

I forgot to post the link about the colors http://www.limewire.com/english/content/ug_search.shtml

Also, killing a stuck download is sometimes useful as you know, but a killed download can also can be resumed from the Library's Incomplete folder.

cheers
