I am running mac x 10.1.5 and for some reason I have to keep re-connecting to my server. It will download for about a minute then nothing, plus I cannot connect to webpages with my browser. Can someone please help? Many thanks.

After opening LW wait 10 to 20 mins or longer before using. Let it settle down 1st.

Tip: Purge the Downloads Queue!

Go to LW's prefs>Speed & tick disable Ultrapeer Cap. & press apply button.
Set both uplds & downlds to autoclear.
Close all LW windows you don't need open at that time.
If you're not in front of your comp, then hide LW in the dock.
Reduce uplds to about 70-80% or more. Reduce downlds to 75 or 90%.
If you share several thous' of files, reduce the no. slightly.

Also Don't use the Resume button on all incomplete files. This can have side-fx such as affect LW's connection quality. May queue your files for much much longer. This will also stress LW & your comp. If you use Resume/Find sources then just apply it to a couple or so at one time.
