I downloaded the latest kazaa lite here. Version 243. It connects but still is not downloading anything. It will try to and starts at 20 kbps. Then it quickly drops off to 10 then 5 then nothing. This has never happened to me before. What the heck is going on? Thanks for any and all help.

is your port forwarded?? if you are getting zero ip its because something is blocking klite, need to find out what that is.

and it has nothing to do with the version of klite

But i'm not getting Zeros, i'm just getting my network ip, instead of my internet ip. When i put in my internet ip and press refresh it goes back to the network ip.

this thread is about klite itself not connectiong

your download speed depends on the # of sources for it and their upload speed, anddon't be fooled by whatyou see in the search window they are not an indication of who is available for connection so change supernodes to see if you get lucky, also use localized supernodes, also try changing ports, and lower your upload bandwidth,remove the no ip sources from your dat files and see if it helps

you are behind a router, your network is what is suppose to be there, don't even mess with that, you need to forward your port and get kanant

hey guys i Just solved my connection problem but im not really sure how i did it.
so im just gonna break it down to yous.
First im runnin windows xp, and connecting with aol broadband dsl (I know aol sucks but when ur job pays for it, it's good enuf).

I first noticed that i wasnt able to connect to nortons liveupdate to get my virus definitions . when to the support site for that. there is a section on liveupdate problems and instructions on deleting a file that sometimes becomes corrupt.

Then i noticed that i wasnt getting the notice from xp's welcome screen that you have "x " amount of unread emails . Also i wasnt able to any of aols video clips.

So i redownloaded the aol software and still wasnt able to connect to kazaa.
Then i made the aol software relocate my modem connection and used the one it found.

Then all was well.

hope this helps

My network blocks kazaa on all ports and on top of that, kazupernodes doesnt display my IP. Followed the steps above but didnt help. Its definietely the network in my case THey only just realised that you can use KAzaa on other ports recently, but they've done a damn good job of filtering it out completely now.

Sorry I went off the subject a little, but in my case the above didnt work most probably because of network restrictions. ANy other tips?

try socks5 or http tunneling

Ok, so I took everyone's advice in here and I still can't get it to connect. I was trying to do it with 2.4.3 but I changed back to 2.4.0 and I'm still having problems. Maybe its that I'm a noob but I dont see a place to put my IP in the K++ options menu. Can someone help me out? Is there a patch that will fix this cennection problem for me?
