Unhappy very few downloads connect

I love the interface. But like numerous others here, I'm having troubles downloading files. (I'm using a G3 Powerbook running Mac OS 8.6, Limewire Pro 2.4, connected via DSL at 384/128 -- though actual tests using sfo.speakeasy.com say my download speed is over a megabit per second).

Searches come back quickly. On the connections tab, I usually get three hosts right off. But 99 percent of the files I try to download fail to even establish a connection, and those few that do usually come in at a crawl, even though most are posted as having broadband connections.
