[Josh]

Hi have emule 0.46a and i want good connectino settings on my 2272 Downstream and 288 Upstream i am talking bout the Max source bit and max connections i have max source hard limit at 500 and max connections at 900 is this n e good what could i use.

I think your max connections is way too high. I have mine set to 350 and I get good speeds.

[Josh]

can u explain at all how max connections makes a difference and what is your broadband speed ????? whats difference between connections and limit is hard liit the amount i can queue with for each download and connections the max i am allowed on thatconnection

Update:
Hard Limit now 2500 and Max COnnections at 5000 and i am getting good speeds of around 30 to 50KBPS i have a max of around 228KBPS i neva been over 100KBPS on emule ????

whats is yuor connection speed tho like downstream and upstream

no reason to limit your download speed, set your max upload speed to 20-24
and your max connections/sources limits should be more like 300/120
setting them too high (in the thousands) will make your downloads slower due to overhead

Max upload is on 23 and i have now set Hard Limit to 120 and Max connections ot 300 is this correct :)

Max upload is on 23 and i have now set Hard Limit to 120 and Max connections ot 300 is this correct :)
no i said Hard Limit 300 and Max connections 120, but you can about double those if you are waiting in queue, then back them down if/when you get close to max download speed

ah right i will see how it goes
