LW & the Gnutella Network is not a centrally based server. What you are meaning is that you are connecting thru the same ultrapeers. If you had a good & reliable enough connection you could also act as an ultrapeer. These are simply other users that help you to connect to the Gnutella network. They block out a lot of unnecessary traffic that you don't need & helps to keep your bandwidth clear for a good connection. I'd suggest you won't be connecting to the same such peers every day of the year! But that might also depend on where you are.
