21 Sources But Still Says More Sources Needed Wtf

[heat84]

I searched for this file and found 21 sources for it but it still says more sources needed instead of downloading. I've been having this problem alot. why?

Thanks

[heat84]

I just got DSL. I tried searching for alot of files on several p2p's (Kazaa ,IMesh, Shareaza) and got plenty of results with plenty of sources but am able to download hardly anything. On shareaza the DL starts breifly then stops or gets stuck un the connecting status. On Imesh it keeps saying queued. On Kazaa it says more sources needed when I found 20, 30 , 40 or more sources. :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry:

OK. I used kdat to get the IP of the sources then pinged a couple of them and kept getting request timed out. I pinged their supernodes and got responses which would explain HOW I get results but can't DL but not WHY. I did a tracert of an IP that couldn't be pinged and couldn't even get 1 hop which would tell me that the problem could be at my computer. Could the bad IP blocker thing that comes with K-Lite be blocking IP's that aren't actually bad? How do I disable the bad IP blocker thing?

[heat84]

Is it possible my DSL modem is blocking IP's? If so how can I fix it?

Sorry

[Aretak]

You should be.

21 sources - 3 and a half million users - do the math.

[~FunK_mOb~]

Just look for more sources than 21.
The more the better.And jump supernodes too.
That will solve your problem...probably.

Cyril > shouldn't 1 source and 31/2 million users be enough. All you need is one.

heat84 > I think you should go to Steve Gibson's site at http://grc.com/default.htm and let him scan your ports, if you are not running a firewall and one is blocked, then your ISP could be blocking your port. Just follow the directions.

Yes, but when you search it shows users that have that file - not available sources. So if you do a search and it shows 21 users sharing that file then obviously you will have to be patient if you wnat to download it.

I don't think there actually is a problem. When I used kdat to look at the source ip addresses, for ever dat file and every source the ip address starts with 64.14. Maybe that means theres no real version of Midnight club available on any p2p How about someone else try downloading Midnight Club 2 and see if they have any luck and let me know. PC, ps2 it doesn't matter which version. I am able to DL other files. I'm getting it from irc anyways so it really doesn't matter. I just wanna know if I'm the only one having trouble with this particular game and that I'm not crazy. Thanks

Those IPs are probably in the blocklist.

And all ips are from a single range then there is a 99% chance that it is a fake.
