Does 2.0x search for files on 1.x users' servers?
 

Was using Limewire 1.6 this morning, not happy with success rate or speed, went looking for updates. Updated to 2.02 Pro. Now the same searches come up empty.

I'm connecting, because if I search for something absurdly common, like "*****," I get hundreds of files found. But nothing under the medium-rare stuff I was looking at this morning under 1.6.

Blink?

Moak created a very comprehensive set of links to anything you want to know about Gnutella - this could be useful for lots of people. Maybe it should be posted in a more prominent place.:)

As for poor search results - it's the luck of the draw, try another search - things change all the time.

I've had poor results one minute, and five minutes later got loads.

Interesting Thread
 

I just read the Thread you mentioned...

Moak discusses:
Server Name:Port

I still use LW 1.7c (eventhough I paid for LW 2.0.2)

Question #1: Should we add some/all of these Server names to our LW Connections "AutoConnect Hosts". Would this help us get more search results?

Question #2: Should we REMOVE router.limewire.com:6346 from the list of "AutoConnect Hosts" ?

Any other hints to increase LW usability ?
