x number of hosts tried...

[squirk]

This has happened on numerous occasions... I search for a file.. hundreds of sources and versions of the file show up... i try one that has like 3-400 sources. it says connecting then begins a pointless counter... saying for example, 223 host tried.


I'd like to know how it can find these files and show me the sources then not be able to connect to any of 450 hosts (on one file I am trying to download) there is no logic in this at all.. if the file is there, on 450 peoples computers taht are connected to the network, why can't it download it.. when a file with 3 sources downloads it fine...


furthermore, ill have 10 hostsconnected on one file, and get 40kb/s when the limit set in limewire is a minimum of 10.94 kb/s when i limit my upload bandwidth... and have my download bandwidth set to unlimited.. if these connections are cable and up as they say they are it should be, with 10 hosts a minimum of 109.4 kb/s. Even with dial up i should be getting more than 40kb/s from 10 hosts..
