Question Can you increase the number of hosts allowed for a download?

Hi,

I've just downloaded Limewire v. 4.8.1 and everything works fine except that I noticed that the number of hosts I get a download from does not go higher than 2. (Under the status during a download it says "downloading from 2 hosts"). One of the files I was downloading had a # of 80 , and still I only got 2 hosts. I did checks with other downloads and the limit seems to be 2.

I was previously using an older version of Limewire (don't know which) and I remember that the number of hosts I would get went as high as 6 on some occasions.

Is there a way to increase the maximum number of hosts allowed during a download, a setting I can change perhaps?

Because of this "limit", I find this new version of LW much slower. Hopefully there's something that I can change.

Thanks very much for any help!

Levi
