You can set your speed in options to T3 but this often actually slows downloads down, so is not as a rule recomended. I have used it once or twice to my advantage, and other times with less good results. If you update to pro you will get a couple more hosts, and if you have a high connection speed this could be an advantage for you. You will also get better search results if you search for rare files if you connect as a leaf, as you will connect to 5 instead of 3 ultrapeers.

There is a deliberate cap on hosts you can connect to for a single file. If there was not one the Gnutella network would not be able to cope with the trafic.......
