I’ve searched around the net and found that many other people have this exact same problem, but no working fix has been offered as yet so I’ll sum everything up.
- Downloads will not go above 2 sources/users no matter how many sources/users the file in question lists in the search window. It’s not a problem of rare files. I’ve tried dozens and dozens of files with 300+ sources. No matter what, each file can only connect to 2 users max.
- The ‘max sources per file’ option has no effect no matter how high it’s set. Even if it is set to ‘1’ all the downloads will still be trying for 2 sources.
- I’ve fiddled with kazupernodes until I’m blue in the face. No change.
- Download speeds are fine if one of the 2 sources happens to have good upload capacity. But if the 2 users it happens to chose have slow uploads, it’s stuck on very low kb’s for however long their connected.
- I think this problem began since installing 2.4.3. Reverting back to 2.4.1 has no effect.
Personally I’m running XP, cable modem. Firewall or no firewall (programs or routers) makes no difference.
I think it’s a problem with the ‘max sources per file’ setting. It’s strange that it has no effect when raised or even lowered past 2. Some old 2 users on every file, no matter what. I’ve fiddled with all the obvious options. Nothing works. I’m totally stumped.
Anyone with the same problem have anything to add that I’ve left out? Anyone have any suggestions on what the problem could be?
