Angry Only able to download from 1 or 2 sources!

GAH.

Although the song/video says it's capable of downloading from more than 20 sources, or more, OR LESS, no matter what, every single thing I try to download, it never goes above 2 sources, therefore, it's extremely slow.

AGH.

Any ideas?

Go to tools options>speed> and you may find you are set to modem. If you are on a dial up modem you will not get much faster. If you are on one of the other connection speeds set it accordingly and you will get more hosts then.. remember to press apply OK ... I'm not sure if you need to restart Limewire for the change to take effect. This may solve your problem

Keep searching for more sources. Some of those listed you may not be able to connect to. Either due to them not having free upload slots or simply a weak connection with too many barriers between. Remember 4 stars represents a good chance of connecting. Less means a lesser chance of a successful & consistent connection & download.

You can also right-click the search bar & choose get more results.
