On Avg, How Long Does Overnet Take You?

A trick I like to use is find sources in shareaza (since shareaza is good at finding sources) and manually add them to overnet by right clicking on the file and selecting add source (since overnet is much, much faster downloading). Maybe this way you can find a source that has the complete file.

where do I download overnet? E-Mule is extremely slow :huh:
get overnet lite here :lol:

@tralalala in overnet there is no need for that, just set the priority of the file and be patient, remember the more you share the less you have to wait in queued :lol:

I'm behind a router, but I opened every port for it to download, yet sometimes it tells me that I am behind a firewall. But then after a couple hours, the download starts up again but then it stops, and my download has been at 93-94% for almost 2 days :(

Is there anyway I can get my download done? I'm getting frustrated
You've opened every port???

I'd recommend only opening the ports you need or you could be in store for a nasty suprise

My sentiments exactly.

I've been trying to download a 800 mb file for the past few days...I left it on for hours at certain times, like I'll leave it on for over 8 hours, then reset my comp, then leave it on all night till morning etc.

I am 94% done with this file but I left it on this morning and it was going 7 kb/s, with about 2 hours left or so, but when I came back 5-6 hours later, it stopped at the same spot it was basically at. I'm confused and frustrated because I've been trying to download all week almost.
 
800mb probebly couple of hours depending on the files sources.

you are probebly queued or maybe that is all that is left of the file. click th "+" next to the file and see who has it, if they have all the file, and what is your queued #.

remember everytime you disconnect and reconnect overnet you loose your place in line of the queued
 
I usually download at 5kbps-70kbps on a 3mbps line (max dl = 400kbps)

uploading is usually at 15kbps-20kbps (max = about 25 kbps)

I dont know why but overnet usually uploads more then it downloads

but its way better then emule :P at least on overnet you can download rare files.. sometimes on emule it can take forever to get 10%

its either what muscleman said, or you might be behind a firewall.

are you behind a router?

i share my whole k-lite folder (approx 2 GB - i know, its nothing compared to you gladiators, but its still a fair amount - and most of it is music).

so it basically works like eMule right? so what really IS the big difference?

more search results and better speed with overnet, take a look around most of us where emule users till we used overnet for a bit and not we don't use slowmule anymore

isn't it odd that overnet is simpler to use but people (me inc) still have problems... :lol: :ghostface: odd.
well some people (you) don't want to know things, they just want to use it.

how long did it take you to know everything you know now with emule??

do you drive?? how long did it take you to learn how to drive??

didn't you use ovenet for half a day and you were having some problems with it and just stoped it??

you wanna be fair give it at least half the time you gave emule then if you still dont' like it i leave you alone, but after half a day, lol i mean give me a break, the first time i ever used kazaa i thought i was gonna throw my pc out the window :lol: :lol: :lol:

more emule users can overnet though :P if it was really as good as you say every emule user would be an overnet one. :P still loyal to my eMule.
not true #1, just look on this forum alone and you will see more and more overnet users then slowmule.

#2 as i always say :

you can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink :P

hey some people are just stuck in denial :P
 
if you are firewalled it does not effect your speed directly but what it does is, it does not allow you to connect to all possible sources thus making it harder for you to get the file. forward the ports that overnet uses not all the ports and check your firewall.

what kind of firewall do you have??
