Problem with Windows XP and Gnutella
 
Help!!!!! I have Windows XP and every single Gnutella client I have tried causes my entire network to crash within a hour or two. I am then forced to reset the Cable Modem to get a Internet Connection back.

I hooked my notebook (Windows ME) up to the Hub last night and it has been running Gnucleus for about 15 hours right now with no problems. This is not a good solution however because I have limited drive space on the notebook, and it is usually not on the network (I need it for work and can't leave it on 24/7)

Any suggestions on the XP problem?

Take a look at Must Read For XP Users from Gnotella Forums. Note that this solution is only for Gnotella and I don't know if it will work with other Gnutella clients.

Thanks for the advice backmann, unfortunatly it did not completly solve my problem.

I tried the changes and this improved my connectivity by a couple of hours (from a average of 2 or 3 to 8 to 10 before a disconnection).

I changed my setup to try and isolate the problem by adding a second network card to my computer and connecting my notebook through ICS. Works like a charm (can easily run 24 hours without any problems on the gnutella network). So this means that I definatly have a software problem.

I have tried Gnucleus, Xolox, Limewire, Phex and Bearshare on my Windows XP computer but with no sucess.

Anybody have any other ideas? or am I just stuck waiting for software upgrades?

You tried bearshare...

I donīt use WinXp but its confirmed that at least bearshare is running without probs on WinXp but this is not the case here...

But I think not that the clients are the problem, because I never heard that all gnet clients donīt run on a system...

And XP it not the problem too...

But I cannot help you because I have w2k and all clients are running fine on my system...
