Not sure where to ask this so If this is the wrong area then sorry.
I live where access to the internet is only possible via a satellite. Most P2P programs will not work due to the satellite delay.
In Shareza there is load of settings in the advanced tab, can anyone help me and advise me on what I could try to make a succesful conection, every now and then it will conect for a few seconds then drop (no ports are blocked by ISP) but I am behind a NAT router so I have an internal IP address (192.168.0.3) I have disabled the firewall (just whilst I get the timeouts etc.. set right.
Anyone help, which setting do I play with..
Or even better anyone connected with a satellite tell me (please) what your settings are. (or what P2P program you use)
There must be a way to get P2P to work over satellite.
Big Thanks in advance
No Idea maybe you should just use kazaa lite.

I have tried Kazaa Lite...
It takes ages for it to connect (due to the lag) I sometimes after leave it for 20 minutes, then I can search okay, but when I come to download all they keep saying is connecting........
I think this is because they try to connect then time out???
Not sure though...
Where do you live? That would be helpful.:)

Sorry Satellite link (my home) is on Nottinghamshire (UK) my uplink station is Germany...
I cannot remember where I saw this but their is a application that will allow you to use 2 phone lines at once, thereby giving you faster uplink. I belive your problem is simply your uplink is to slow. Is there a way to have a local uplink?
you might be better of with a local access account, even 56k can give you some results. I read all the time of folks using 56k modems running overnight and getting about 80mb per night. with a good p2p app line winmx or edonkey you can continue your downloads even after logging off and then back on.
The main thing that comes to mind when using high latency links is to increase the two timeout values in the "connection" settings page, maybe to a minute or two rather than their default values.
That should prevent your connections timing out locally. If the remote end is doing the timing out then obviously it's beyond your control.
If this doesn't work, let us know what error messages you get in your system window when you try to connect.
