These volunteers keep the board organized and moving. Moderators are authorized to: (in order of increasing severity) Move posts to the correct forums. Many times, members post in the wrong forum. These off-topic posts may impede the normal operation of the forum. Edit posts. Moderators will edit posts that are offensive or break any of the House Rules. Delete posts. Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted. Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender. Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration. The Rules 1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form. Topics discussing techniques for violating these laws and messages containing locations of web sites or other servers hosting illegal content will be silently removed. Multiple offenses will result in consequences. File names are not required to discuss your issues. If filenames are copyright then do not belong on these forums & will be edited out or post removed.

There will be no racial, ethnic, or gender based insults, or any other personal attacks. 5. Pictures may be attached to posts and signatures if they are not sexually explicit or offensive. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement. 6. Remember to post in the correct forum. Take your time to look at other threads and see where your post will go. If your post is placed in the wrong forum it will be moved by a moderator. There are specific Gnutella Client sections for LimeWire, Phex, FrostWire, BearShare, Gnucleus, Morpheus, and many more. Please choose the correct section for your problem. 7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required. 8. Any impersonation of a forum member in any mode of communication is strictly prohibited and will result in banning. 9. Multiple copies of the same post will not be tolerated. Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. Keep in mind a forum censor may temporarily automatically hold up your post, if you do not see your post, do not post again, it will be dealt with by a moderator within a reasonable time. Authors of multiple copies of same post may be dealt with by moderators within their discrete judgment at the time which may result in warning or infraction points, depending on severity as adjudged by the moderators online. 10. Posts should have descriptive topics. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents. 11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. Reiterating, do not post your email address in posts. This is for your own protection. 12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit or used for commercial advertising. Commercial weblinks cannot be used under any circumstances and will result in an immediate ban. 13. Dual accounts are not allowed. Cannot explain this more simply. Attempts to set up dual accounts will most likely result in a banning of all forum accounts. 14. Video links may only be posted after you have a tally of two forum posts. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. 15. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues. Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis. Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community. |

Configuring Norton Internet Security & if you use Norton IS then disable Win XP firewall. Port 6346 is the port LW listens & uplds & downlds thru. This can be changed under Tools>Options>Firewalls. Do you have it set to UPnP or manual port forwarding? Not all modems/routers that use NAT firewalls can use UPnP technology. Some hints: Tip: Purge the Downloads Queue! Allow LW to settle for 10-20 mins before using. Don't use the Resume button on all incomplete files. This will also stress LW & your comp. If you use Resume/Find sources then just apply it to a couple or so at one time. A well set-up LW can start to automatically continue its dwnlding after it's settled down perhaps 2 out of 3 times you open LW. Optimising LW & Maximising Uplds & Dwnlds A (1st post only) & also Part B which is even better & last & least are search & dwnld hints. The latter one I've been thinking about re-writing for some time. That's just for playing it safe. eg- I show all speeds & qualities. eg: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...028#post116028 |

| I've check yes i connected at a speed of 52kbps maximum. i think it's because of the ultrapeers thingy. i've 9host while downloading. could it be bad host nowdays as i download? |

| If you connect at 52 KB/s then your connection speed plan is 512 kbps not 256. It is possible to have a bad host. There apparently are some bad ones out there that allow you to connect thru them but then don't give any response back. There's been talk in the past about that. One thing we haven't mentioned yet is the possibility your isp provider has detected you use p2p softw & has applied a filter upon you or have just generally started using p2p filters. It something many isps are starting to do now b/c p2p uses great amounts of bandwidth which causes major traffic thru the isp. Last edited by Lord of the Rings; April 19th, 2005 at 09:20 AM. |

| "If" you're being filtered by your ISP provider then you can try to complain but it's difficult to know b/c they do it secretly & people at the front help desk probably won't even know. If people are uplding from you then you'll get much better results. Do this test: Bug Report instructions & sample image Is it True/False? If false it means you're firewalled & people will greatly struggle to upld from you. |

| It's true. man oh man if i change to 1500kbps will my dl speed be better? |

| If you upgrade your plan then of course you should be able to get better speeds but, remember there's limits depending upon whether the people you're downlding from are using dial up or how much spare bandwidth they have available spread b/w a no. of people. Some people offer great upld speeds by not having too many upld slots, but some have it set to unlimited slots so if they're busy it might mean their upld speed drops after it's been divided amongst many people. |
