stumped my LW is on steroids.....
 

hey there, i am getting this odd situation with my LW client lately. i run 4.0.8 (not pro) and when it connects it connects to 20-26 hosts each time (as opposed to the normal 4). in the stats window i see total hosts = 1200+ (as opposed to the normal 200 max) and about 1000GB of files available(as opposed to 150-200BGB).

i should be happy with the grip my client is getting on the network but im not, due to:

d/ls getting slower (i now get 1/6th of the regular speed)
the connections hog my bandwidth

my config is LW 4.0.8, winxp sp2( i dont get problems connecting with the 10 connections/port limit thing), cable

is this normal or a new feature? is anyone else getting into the same situation? and how can i limit the connections bcoz it aint helping me...?

thanks a lot

dats ok ive changed that. but it was always like dat all this time........anyway thx.

Thass weird... People usually complain that Sp2 doesn't let them connect. Here we have the exact opposite: LW connects too much...
