A few things to consider while configuring Limewire for optimal performance...

OK. Double and triple checking. I found that one of my lime wire ports were not on the right number. Now it's right and I have tried to pu 127.0.0.1 in but each time I save it, it comes back as "Mom" as a name... Is that right? I thought getting the "incoming" to say a # was going to be the major factor and suddenly would be getting higher download speeds. I don't really see a difference in the speeds. So where do I go next? Any ideas? It seems like I have done everything else that was recommended before I finally found the hidding port issue.

do you want a copy of the bug report again??

Somebody says that Port Forwarding is an Issue of our bad speed, does that make an issue ?

Thanks,

I am not sure if it is or not. I am not even sure how to find out if I need to set up a port forewarding of it I am capable of following the instructions to do such a thing. LOL

i kinda got a questions
where do i check my download and upload speed ( i need to find it out to find what speed i need to set)
i dun even kno the difference between an upload and download
plz help becuz my downlaods are taking so long (like 1-5kb most of time) if i'm all wrong in what this post told me to do plz correct me >.<

my speed are 1.5M download and 256k upload

i know that means 187kBs and 32kBs but i cant use the slider bar to fit both download and upload bandwidth in a same speed!!

eg. dsl's bandwidth range are between 2kBs and 43kBs.
T3's bandwidth range are between 94kBs and 371kBS.

ok, i have around 1200 dl bandwith adn around 320 upload bandwith.

what do i set my bandwith of download for limewire.

what do i set my bandwith of upload for limewire.



thanks

i finally got around to this (tutorial) and i think it's great! -as long as you can read, and do basic math. lol- i have adjusted accordingly. thanks.

i am completely new at this and am learning bits and pieces as i read. When i did my speed test for my uploads/ downloads it read ( i have ADSL)OWLOAD 61.34KB
UPLOADS:12.22KB
Does this sound right? and is that the numbers i should set that bandwith thingy at????????????

Im sorry if i sound completly stupid!
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Set download at max and upload at around 8.5 to 9
