Members need to supply these details >>> System details - help us to help you (click on blue link) Moderators There are senior members on the forums who serve as Moderators. These volunteers keep the board organized and moving. Moderators are authorized to: (in order of increasing severity) Move posts to the correct forums. Many times, members post in the wrong forum. These off-topic posts may impede the normal operation of the forum. Edit posts. Moderators will edit posts that are offensive or break any of the House Rules. Delete posts. Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted. Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender. Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration. The Rules 1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form. Topics discussing techniques for violating these laws and messages containing locations of web sites or other servers hosting illegal content will be silently removed. Multiple offenses will result in consequences. File names are not required to discuss your issues. If filenames are copyright then do not belong on these forums & will be edited out or post removed. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement. 2. Spamming and excessive advertising will not be tolerated. Commercial advertising is not allowed in any form, including using in signatures. 3. There will be no excessive use of profanity in any forum. 4. There will be no racial, ethnic, or gender based insults, or any other personal attacks. 5. Pictures may be attached to posts and signatures if they are not sexually explicit or offensive. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement. 6. Remember to post in the correct forum. Take your time to look at other threads and see where your post will go. If your post is placed in the wrong forum it will be moved by a moderator. There are specific Gnutella Client sections for LimeWire, Phex, FrostWire, BearShare, Gnucleus, Morpheus, and many more. Please choose the correct section for your problem. 7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required. 8. Any impersonation of a forum member in any mode of communication is strictly prohibited and will result in banning. 9. Multiple copies of the same post will not be tolerated. Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. Keep in mind a forum censor may temporarily automatically hold up your post, if you do not see your post, do not post again, it will be dealt with by a moderator within a reasonable time. Authors of multiple copies of same post may be dealt with by moderators within their discrete judgment at the time which may result in warning or infraction points, depending on severity as adjudged by the moderators online. 10. Posts should have descriptive topics. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents. 11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. Reiterating, do not post your email address in posts. This is for your own protection. 12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit or used for commercial advertising. Commercial weblinks cannot be used under any circumstances and will result in an immediate ban. 13. Dual accounts are not allowed. Cannot explain this more simply. Attempts to set up dual accounts will most likely result in a banning of all forum accounts. 14. Video links may only be posted after you have a tally of two forum posts. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. 15. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues. Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis. Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community. |

 Downloads Go to 1kb after 15minutes hi people thanks for reading, i have a 1mb broadband connection, i have searched and i cant find nothing related specifically for this problem im having on the forums so maybe someone else can tell me whats going on! I start limwire when i first connect to the net, and download a file, it will go at a good 100kb/s, im very pleased  *UNTIL* about 15minutes into the download/of being on limewire, the download will near enough stop, still with all the souces connected *around 7 or 8* and go at 1kb/s - 3kb/s only!!!!! im not sure why this is, becuase i can still download from the internet websites at 120kb/s just not limewire, could it be my connection needs setting up for limewire or is it limewire itself? you tell me ! PLEEEEASEEE regards scott  |

| Let's check a few things: After LW has been open for a minimum of 30 mins do this test: Bug Report instructions & sample image Is it True/False? If you have people uploading from you it's normally much easier to maintain good speeds & good search results. I know you're sharing a lot of files. Another 2 ways to revitalise a download is to do another search for sources. Another is to stop it & reselect it from the search results. Difficult to know why your problem occurs. It might be the sources have suddenly started shring their upld bandwidth with others, or there may be some interference/busy traffic in between. Or someone's isp if filtering speeds. I'mm sure there's other possible reasons also. |

| im having the same type of issues scottyboy is having.. i've done it all.. i've adjusted my firewalls accordingly, i've turned from dynamic to static, redone all my ip's etc.. fixed up my router as explained and suggested.. out of 6 days 2 days were very very great. the other 4 just sucked badly. so im assuming Lord is prolly right, but with that in mind my confusion is, "i just got cable at my current house" before this anywhere else i was at with say my laptop etc.. i downloaded with ease and sufficency. so i think theres something else were all missing.. would be nice to know what it is, if anyone else knows or has any ideas. just to save time and posts  im running winxp pro sp2 norton runnin dlink wireless router di424 2gigs kingston ddr 240gigs hd's geforce 6800gt i have this pc and 2 laptops i use "wirelessly" on my network. and both are affected by this issue just like my main pc.

| Wythered: If you used port forwarding of port 6346 for one of your computers, you'll need to forward a separate port no. for each of the others. ie: the other 2 must use a different port no. Be that 6348 & 6342 for example. Unless you just jump-connect them with the same connection & don't run them from at the same time. I think you'd find the other two computers give a False reading on the Bug Report. |

| so pretty much, the stuff i did for my main i need to do for my laptops? generally they run at the same time for the most part, yes. im more concerned with my main if i can get my main to run it right that would make me more happy, then i can go deal with my laptops. i didn't give other info on my main i forgot pen 4 3.0ghz is the proc |

| im in the process of downloading on both 1 laptop and my main and both are downloading great between 20kb/s and 120kb/s this would be the 3rd good day out of i think 6 or 7 days. and im downloading multiple songs on both pc's so... either, being on shared broadband "cable" on a farm is bad, or something else is a miss.. heh |
