Default How to get more than 8 sources?

Hi,

I was wondering how you can get more than 8 sources when downloading a file on LW. Cause I'm using really fast internet at my University (20,000kbps d/l speed) and I just wanted to know how to take full advantage of that.

Also, how could I set the connection speed to T1 or T3 or higher? I can only see an option to either choose 'broadband' or 'dialup' when I goto tools/options/speed.

I'm also using Limewire basic on Windows XP.

Well if your useing basic like most people are than you really cant no more than 8-10 any way.

And the T1 and T3 settings are on older lime wire's i think any thing past 4.14 versions.

Just go back to an older version. Trust me Limewire has not improved lately.

Download LimeWire Basic 4.12.6 - FileHippo.com

This should explain better why I recommend an older version: How to Force UltraPeer (Better searches whether using Pro or Basic)

Limewire 4.12.3 / Newest Phex / Newest Azureus

I recommend using either an old Limewire version without BitTorrent support or Phex for Gnutella, Azureus is BitTorrent. None of this Limewire Gnutellatorrent hybrid crap.
