asulekh Posted April 20, 2008 CID Share Posted April 20, 2008 HI, I am not able to download media files from limewire even though it is uploading files at great rate.... I have forwarded the ports properly, connected to a "turbo charged network" and I am able to download perfectly well from the uTorrent client... But why am I not from gnutella network? Please help...

Shug7272 Posted April 22, 2008 CID Share Posted April 22, 2008 WOW!!! That is very odd. If not for the screenshot I would say you are firewalled but you dont appear to be. I would say one of two things is happening. Either you are not sharing or your ISP is throttling your bandwidth for Limewire. Limewire tracks leachers kinda like BT so if you are sharing no files and others are they will get priority with most uploaders clients. If you have files shared then it may be your isp. Try setting up lime wire to use a different port than the original. Something like 99887. Then forward your ports again with the new port number. Some ISP will throttle bandwidth to common P2P ports and you may have some of that. Hope that helps. If not let us know. :grin2: BTW in my opinion Frostwire is a MUCH better client than Limewire. No spyware, totally free and still connects "turbo charged". If you are not paying for your premium version of Limewire then you downloaded a hacked version and that MAY (probably not) be your problem. EDIT: Just looked at your screen grab again and apparently your sharing plenty. Try the new port. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest aneljr009 Posted April 22, 2008 CID Share Posted April 22, 2008 What version your limewire is? Basic or Pro? If Basic, the speed is not doubtful. Just download the Pro version through torrent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asulekh Posted April 22, 2008 Author CID Share Posted April 22, 2008 PinoyTweaker, you were right. I feel like a stupid now... @ All, thanks for looking into the trouble, but the problem is resolved now. My download bandwidth setting was set at just 2.5 kbps. Adjusted it to "unlimited" and now getting turbo charged speed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest aneljr009 Posted April 22, 2008 CID Share Posted April 22, 2008 Yes I know. Just calm down, we all know that most of us rely in torrent. A thread here about utorrent setup is an evidence. I mean you're wise being the 50th person to download a torrent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean you're wise being the 50th person to download a torrent. Good point. let other people try it out first. still, advising someone to use pirated software is a little off though.

philp Posted April 24, 2008 CID Share Posted April 24, 2008 BTW, guys, you can download a perfectly good version of Limewire Pro directly from the free version of Limewire. Just search for it on Limewire and download and install a zip file of Limewire Pro version 4.12.6 and you can get speeds of around 400 kbps on some downloads. Or so I've heard.
