    Downloads Deaccelerate!

    Whats up guys and gals? I am new to the forums as a poster although I have been browsing them for a while. Anyway, I figured it was time to come here and ask my question that is stumping me. I have switched between tons of different networks and programs, none of them work correctly for me. I recently just got Sharezaa and was downloading a file off of the Edonkey2000 network. The download started speeding up to about 15 Kb/s then started dropping slowly over about a minute until it was at about 0.6 kb/s. I have my correct ports open on my firewall, both the XP firewall and the Router I have. Any other advice?

    Yah, eliminate everything in the middle, the router, the windows firewall, etc etc and test an app.

    Secondly, where are you located, a dorm? Whos your ISP, what area are you in, cough up some info we can use.

    And stop posting in that other thread cuz were gonna close it, you make us hop in two threads, we'll close both of them.

    How many sources?

    Say you are downloading off of 3 people and one of them has the full copy. Say the guy with the whole copy is uploading at 0.6 kb/s. The other 2 are sharing partials and haven't gotten the complete file, but they are sharing at a combined 14.4 kb/s. At first these two are giving you lots of packets, but gradually they have less and less packets to give you.....therefore your download rate would slowly decline to 0.6 kb/s.

    Something like that..

    it is just the nature of Edonkey. just let it run, that is the best (and only) thing you can really do. Just be patient and enjoy it when it comes in, because chances are you probably wont find it elsewhere. Except for E-mule or Direct Connect. (that is if you are using it for quality/hard to find files)

    sounds to me like a packet shaper, get a decent ISP you will probably have to pay a bit more though.

    Ill as much info as I can think of. I am on Xp, the interent runs great, downloads that are not p2p are very fast. I am on a MIcrosoft MN500 wireless router that I have to use wirelessly now to use interent because I dont have a network card. Would it work better if I just connected directly later on? BIt torrent is not really working at all either.

    ok . . lets try this . . .

    Are you on a campus?

    Who is your ISP?

    Where t f r u?

    Lets start with the environment, then we will get to the nitty gritty . . like if you have 4226 errors in Event Viewer etc.

    Hey guys.. thanks for the help. I think I may have figured out what the problem was. A friend told me something about the DNS Cache in my router could be full or overfilled because of all of the IPs that it was hjaving to process and connect to. So w hat I did was I took some of the load off of the router by setting up mny IP and DNS and all that to be static. Its not super fast but its now to like 4k/s on Limewire.

    My provider is Charter Cable

    Area.. Mountains of NC

    I am not on a campus

    I think it would be easier ot just get a network card and hook up the cable to my pc directly. I am having to run through a wireless router and go wireless because I never put a ethernet card in this pc.

    Ok . . lets forget DELIVERENCE for a moment . . are you ON A COLLEGE CAMPUS?

    is this your home?

    Have you looked at http://www.portforward.com/ to read the instructions for your router?

    If you have a router, the router gets DNS from your ISP automatically, so DONT add DNS to your OS manually. Leave everything to DHCP - Auto.

    Now, go check that event viewer and applications to see if you have 4225 errors.

    Answer the questi\ons and lets get this wrapped up

    I am not on a college campus or conected through one. I am directly to the ISP. 3 MB/S. Now Limewire is even really slow. I don't know what happened? Maybe I should just format? HOw do I get to the event viewer?

    some things you have to google


    Start > Run > eventvwr

    See applications and scroll all the way back looking for 4226


    After you search for this info and report back, I want you to shut down windows, shut down the router, pull the power on the cable\dsl modem, then hook your network cable directly from the PC to the modem, no router.

    power up the router, then start your PC

    Launch P2P and observe


    est 1 hour

    Hey guys thanks for the replys, I had a bad thunderstorm here that took out power and I am just getting back on right now. Anyway, a friend mentioned turning on the encryption option in the BitComet so I did and it works. So.. the only thing I come to is that my ISP is shkaping packets or something. Does anyone else know of other programs with the P2P encryption?
