I have a cable connection set up on a wireless network and can't seem to keep a consistent connection. I also can't download any faster than maybe 3 KB/second at best. This happened all of a sudden. Please Help!!!!

Try an experiment, try downloading a magnet link from here http://www.magnetmix.com/video.shtml & tell us what happens. What speeds do you get?

I've a horrible suspicion your problem might be due to ISP bandwidth shaping against LimeWire or p2p programs. That's often the reason for sudden drops in performance.

Also check the questions at the bottom of this post Connection problems? Check here first! (click on link) - yes that's in the FrostWire section but it has the questions easily layed out.

HI, i still get 2kb/s.. i have a cable connection,1.5Mbps ... i'm not sure how to count the KB/s thing.. can u teach me the method to count. so that i will know how to drag the download bar

You can do a speed test & if your speed is measured in kb/s, divide by 8 to get KB/s (which is how you'll see download speed measured in LW)

This thread has info about how to best set up your LW, once you know your speed
Configuring LW for best performance

If those magnet link files downloaded at 2kb/s (maybe you mean KB/s), something's wrong somewhere. Those should download quickly. Follow the connection problems link in LOTR's post & give us your details (you'll see the info we need)...might be interesting to see who your ISP is! Have you used other p2p apps & if so, did you get the same slow download speeds?

How many green connection bars do you have & do you see the firewall icon (brick wall)?
