Download Probs

[taco]

in the past week, i've noticed that almost all of my downloads say 'more sources needed'

i have around 40 in queue, and only 1 or 2 seem to be downloading.

i've tried all the usual stuff of jumping nodes etc, but nothing much happens...is there a server down or some other technical glitch??

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

When u say this do u mean their Status is "Queued"? If so then it is a setting gone wrong.
