Download #

How come when I see like 166 in the # I still only download from two hosts. If there are more hosts, shouldn't my download speed increase?

In LW tools>options>downloads --- try increasing the number of maximum downloads to say about 25 - 50. You will need to experiment with what is right for your system. It also allows more hosts to connect.

It also might depend on how many d/l you have going, and your connection speed.

just a thought

Athough these other people might have the file ... many probably already have all their upld slots filled. Or else you just can't connect to them very easily. I'd suggest it's rare to connect to all of the sources you find in a search.
