I have a Linkysys BEFW1154 ver. 4 wireless b router.

WOW that was good timing! You both replied simulataneously! lol

tahoe147: BEFW1154 ver. 4 port instructions & use Port 6346. You'll also need to force IP within LW & see LW Force IP instructions & sample image

Canoli: There's more than one befsr41 version. Instructions for each one is here: 1. befsr41 version 1 & 2 & 2. befsr41 version 2 Firmware 1.40.2 & also 3. BEFSR41 versions 3, 4, 5 and CA You need to determine which version yours is. You will also need to use Port 6346. And also Force IP will be required within LW; see Force IP instructions above.

Get back to us & tell us how you go. Good luck!

still nothing just connecting. I erased the directory also and did the 6436 test and the page said your request was a success.

Now i am getting a fair connection, so its a start. Any other recomendations?

Give LW time to settle.

Also see about optimising LW & maximising upld & dwnld success: LINK A (1st post only) & also LINK B & I suppose some search & dwnld hints

Try not to force resume too many files b/c it'll have a chaotic effect upon you r connetion quality & cause your files to be queued for ages & ages.

Oh & sharing files helps! Preferably a reasonable no. & popular ones. People uplding helps you to connect & connect to more peers for higher searching & dwnlding efficiency.

i'm connecting from home, i use some squiggly line, then it says Westel on the DSL box.
