How come i can't ultrapeer??? I'm somewhat new to the wire, and have read many o' posts on here. thanks to the sheer mass of knowledge distributed throughout this forum, i feel that i have a decent config going for my program. im on a DSL connection 1544/128kbs, 400 MHZ, 192 RAM. i get speeds of up to 100kbs downloading, but thats only when i find a file with say 50+ sources which is rare indeed. so i assume my speed is good enough to Ultrapeer. i have tried leaving box on for a week, but to no avail. i am getting very few file sources on my "network statistics", max downloads is at 4, always a turbocharged connection (6 ultrpeers), and my uploads bandwith is set at around 40kbs(nearly all the way up), with 3 per person, and 3 max slots. i also have adult content blocked, if that means anything. i always dare to share and want to be a part of providing some good material to people. any ideas?? sorry if i this comes as a repeat question |
lingo? may i ask how you compute those numbers? |
kbs/Kilobits = 1000 bits 8 bits = 1 byte 1024 bytes = 1 Kilobyte 128 * 1000 : 8 : 1024 = 15,6 Kilobyte uploadspeed 1544 * 1000 : 8 : 1024 = 188,4 Kilobyte Morgwen |
Thx Peerless, Morgwen....now that i've got these numbers, i took Mursanames advice from her sticky on configuring, and set my uploads bandwith to 11KBS. i am seeing fast download speeds. My question now is , will anybody be able to see/upload my files with such a low setting? mursanames advice was to take 5 from my total (16KBs) coming to the 11KBs, which barely even registers on the upload bandwidth setting. any ideas?...and thanks again to all |
alright...guess i'm all set....thx again |
You can't become an UP if you are firewalled.... Look in tools- options - error report-see an exemple. If the line recived incoming this sessions: true, you can become an UP if false you are firewalled by either a software or a router. Bonne chance |

Here is the Doc's question: so why don't you unfirewall the Limewire port so you can download faster and share content to 200% more people? :) Ciao |
i was told or read somwhere that this DSL modem has a built in firewall......and yes my received incoming messages were : false...........is there any way around that? i forced local IP on the firewalls tab. but i don't even really know if that means anything. |
You don't have to force ip if you are only behind your computer firewall, only if nated or behind router. I don't know if unforce ip would help though. Also, I never said no firewall, only to open the port LW uses...:p SayNoToNimrod: if you bought the modem, there is probably a manual so you can disable that firewall. If it comes from your ISP, well... You can always do a search on google about your model of modem and firewall to see if it comes with one. Peerless what is your firewall? Bone chance |
