![]() When you want to game or run other p2p clients, you set it to 15 - 10kB/s.- Uncheck download limit.- Set maximum connections limit to 50-100. 256 = 32kB theoretical, you set your upload limit to 25kB/s. If you go bellow 10kB/s, it will cap your download.For instance 1024/256 connection. Set your upload rate to maximum possible (considering on what else are you doing - for surfing you less overhead than gaming). What happened was people just got more out of me and I got the same amount of them at the same shitty speeds.People can talk all the crap in the world they want about Kazaa/BT/etc but most of the time when you find something, its fast at the least. I tried uploading massive hordes of data to earn credits on a T1. Sure maybe it makes sense for their network structure, stability, whatever but frankly, I don't have time to let eMule spend a year eating up resources on a machine just so I can find some old files.Edonkey is basically a network of users all grabbing stuff from eachother at 2KB/s. I have no clue why people continue using something that essentially turns the entire network into a massive dialup pool. But even if you find it, chances are that the sources will disappear in the year it takes you to download it.Just use something else. The only good thing about eMule is that its very easy to find "legacy" files on the network. Maybe I'm just spoiled but I didn't really expect it to take hours to download a 20meg file. ![]() Anyone who swears by this network has to be the most patient person in the known world. I've tried every possible version and mod of eMule/eDonkey over the past year or two. It will automatically deal with upload priorities if you configure it right so that you get credits you can actually use. Look into something called "s.w.a.t" emule mod. This is why many people will only share the files that they are trying to download so that they will only receive credits from sources they will actually use. A couple of things.Because emule clients use a credit system you get rewards for uploading to people.of course you can only receive the rewards unless you download from the same people. Edonkey's bandwith usage isnt as bad as it seems and you can even show what the overhead is though a setting. The central servers you connect to just perform a handshake and constantly keep taking roll call, and you get barraged.and down goes your network speed. Your B/W loss is from the mass communication going on, not to mention all the ads that are being 's nothing bad _per se_.just bandwidth intensive to keep track of 1 million plus peers.Napster was clean and efficient because there were central servers that did all the searches and listings for you, eMule/eDonkey is more like a distributed computing program for searching files and downloading stuff.there are no real central servers to do the work for you.
