Topic: Crap speed on Morpheus

I've never been able to get decent speed on Morpheus, even on common (and perfectly legal of course) files. I'm always dl/ing at half a k a sec, or the connections just keep dropping out. I'm using win98se and o@h.
I've heard this may have something to do with port forwarding on my NIC? If that's the case, could someone please tell me what port Morpheus uses?

right click on the file your a d/l, then click find a faster source or something like that, should work

I read somewhere that optus has slowed speeds on certian ports that napster etc use for "load balancing" purposes...

optus used to be really s*** for me on morpheus the one day it was awesome for a while, for at least a week, but now its back to being s***, it could depend on who im downloading off though, but i have a suspicion its a optus problem

optus has started limiting thoes ports at their end.. There was a thread at www.whirlpool.net.au about it.

That might be the case but you shouldn't be limited THAT MUCH..

I've gotten a top speed of just under 40k on my bpgay connection.

phoenix morpheus is peer to peer. Optus users probably wouldn't get much faster speeds... It is most likely the guy u were downloading form.

anyway Scythe1o1 your best bet is to e-mail optus... morpheus isn't warez software and is used for legal purposes believe it or not...
They most likely limited the ports
