384kbps = 48KB/s your max should be set around 40KB/s

4000kbps = 500KB/s so DL should be unlimited

You are set up properly and yes it is the luck of the draw. I would allow 4 to connect and upload at a time.

I spent some time,and thought on settings,and I saw the light.

Adjustment to

Download share
Upload share (Basic,and slots)
Files that I share(music,image ect..)
T3 setting-increased my host from 10 to 14


Download setting 2 files at a time.I average 150kps on each of these files,on any given file.Almost.This is based on the number of host that share that file.So,If 10 or more host have that file,I'm getting great Dl speeds.

You need to be careful running T3 settings and make sure you are not overloading your UL capability. If you use to much UL bandwidth it will hurt your DL capabilities.

I am going to do a speed test at various times to get more accurate readings.I put my download speed to a T1 connection so I can match my upload speed of 40KB/s.

I do not think I have my settings tweaked for max performance. I'm talking about ULing speeds & DLing speeds. What should my max # DL and max # Searches be? ULing slots and # of UL per slot? Things of that nature.

I did a speed test on speakeasy.net and I did the one for ATL, bcuz that's where I live, and my results were DL - 6369kbps (795.9KBps), UL - 424kbps (53KBps).

I was told by a friend that a T1 connection is 3.0MBps and clearly I have more than that, so should I use a T3 setting?

Any help will be greatly appreciated and welcomed!

So what!? Your question(s) are vague. Do you want to spell it out?

Check thru the LW beta archives section. Answers are not easy because different systems behave differently, amount of incomplete or shared files makes a major difference. Version of Java, etc.

Every time I download a song, I get a message "file is corrupted. Do you want to proceed?" How do I avoid this because each song only play the first 8 seconds.
