Switched to DSL and Lost Download Speed I recently switched from dialup to DSL. since the switch my connection to limewire is extremely slow I was downloading faster with dial-up (download speeds of 2 or 3kb/s) Now ith DSL I am getting 0 or 1 (Mostly 0) What is the problem? |
Make sure you dont still have your dialup proxy settings in limewire |
1 Attachment(s) One of the differences between dial up & adsl/dsl is the modem/router. Most dsl modems have NAT firewalls. The newer ones will normally have a UPnP (universal plug & play) option which will allow the modem/router to open any necessary ports for any upnp capable programs requesting them to be opened. Check the 1st section & UPnP section & if necessary the manual port forward sections here Connection problems? Check here first! (click on link) Do you see a brick wall in front of the planet icon at the bottom of LW's interface? (see sample image below) Who is your internet service provider (isp)? What brand & model of modem/router do you use now? What firewalls do you have? Are you sharing the connection with other computers & are any of them using a p2p program also? |
