firewall again!!!!

Ok! You can potentially get over 200 KB/s with that site so I was curious how you'd fair.

i've had over 200 with limewire in the past but i will definately have a look when my d/l finishes and let you know

just clicked onto that magnet site, what am i supposed to be downloading, is there a search feature so i can search for files or can i only downloadthe few files that i can see on the opening page?

You can find other files but this is simply a test. Choose any. You don't have to finish downlding it but give it a reasonable chance to pick up speed.

i let it d/l till 50% was complete it maxed at 100 KB/s and the least it was was 74KB/s is that what you would expect?

That's not too bad, though I might have expected it to be higher. Their site might be busy or ...

i guess i'm just gonna be happy with waht ive got and stop being so picky lol
thanks for trying though it was all very interesting loland if you think of anything else for me to try just let me know

Being non-firewalled would help. If you're uploading to others it does in fact help all round. It helps in searches because you're already connected to others & their peers, & thus helps for downloads. I don't know what your connection setting is but try a T3 setting.

Also periodicall re-searching or using the advanced search options by right-clicking the search tab & choosing Find more results can help find more sources. The more sources the better. I also like to browse hosts as that can sometimes help connect to more hosts.

im on t3 and i do use the search more option
