hmm..interesting. i have similar issues but its not pertainent to emule. My whole internet stops....but i know thats cause of some stupid PC issues (i hate u SP2!)

i'm guessing your having similar issues. Did u try deleting the emule directory and starting from scratch ?
Also, try to map to other ports, and not the defaults.

Do you have more then 1 machine at home ? test emule on another machine. See if its a machine problem or a router issue. I had some issues where i had to manually erase all teh log files on my router. Then it would work fine again.

thx for the reply. my earlier post probs went off. but all of a sudden its bak again . i  just dont get this. works all fine n then stops.i tried the ports thin .it works but just for a few days.i only connect to the donkey servers now but still i keep losin the connection and keeps reconnectin as i added it to the static list.  u have any idea how to maintain a connection for long instead of losin it ?

I didn't know people still used eMule! I was using eDonkey and Limewire side by side, but eDonkey servers have had a clampdown apparently, coz' it doesn't run anymore, and prompts me to uninstall it saying it's an illegal software. Limewire is fine, but I don't get any music albums (in RAR or ZIP format), whereas eDonkey had it ALL!

Lemme try eMule too.

i havent tried edonkey yet. limewire alwayz works but i hate the fact tht it takes more time than a file actually needs to down and there aint much stuff out there in terms of new hames , software n moviez. i just down the new fifa07cracked in emule wit no probs. but i really think etisalat duds are upto somethin. i m just waitin for DU to come now

[sammy]

my emules connected for the past 2 weeks, no issues.
I'm using a 512 too, with a linksys WAG54G....but i've change my ports.
did u try on another machine as i suggested ?

P.S: WinXP SP2 has a hidden tcp connection limit. Try to reduce the number of simultaneous uploads / downloads. This includes other p2p (like limewire).

[ramzy]

how do i do the upload thing ...my limit is on 12kb. is that what u mean ?i tried on another machine and it worked alright but only time will till if it works fine na.....

[ramzy]

and ya i started all from scratch now .... its all going fine as for now but do tell me bout the upload thin and whether u change anythin in the preferences or just keep everythin in default

[ozzylogic]

I'm gonna get me eMule!

[sammy]

the upload thing is a per program specific thing.
If you are using emule, its there in the options. The number of files as well as the bandwidth

[ramzy]

me using emule0.47c. i don see an option to reduce the no. of uploads anywhere. could ya help me out?

[sammy]

just reduce the speed on emule. I think it sticks constant to 4 uploads at a time.
