I noticed that no matter how many sources I have found for a single file the bandwidth for the people sharing is not going higher than 320. Which in turn is limiting my speeds to no more than 35.00 kbs. I would sometimes have a problem with user bandwidth caps but id simply close kazaa and restart. But even a reboot is not helping, neither is jumping supernodes. Any suggestions?
I do not think you are having a problem. With speeds of 35 you should be content, a lot of users get 5 or below
Are you behind a router?
Nope, No Router, No Firewall even. And i'd say no longer than a week ago user bandwidth would be in the 1000's if I found enough sources. I have 1mb dsl thru a usb modem.
if this is what you see in the search window its just an indication of what bandwidth you used last time you got a file and it will change when you download again, it has nothing to do with how fast you can get files, in short ignore it
Still cant get a rate above 35.00 kbs on a file with 10 sources. I'm used to getting around 80.00 kbs with that many sources.
maybe your are being capped by your ispQuote:

Go here to find out.
If you plugged anything else into your USB ports, even if you're not actively using them, it can decrease your modem's speed.Quote:

USB connections are also prone to slightly higher failure rates for datapackets than ethernet (read:LAN) connections. It has to do with having to use an emulator to send the 'fake network connection' through and translate on both ends.
