im running windows XP. and i have just upgraded to the AOL (yes i now its bad) 8MB unlimited package. but since ive upgraded my download speeds have dropped drastically. ive phoned AOL and they have said it could be a faulty line filter??? they are sending me some new ones. they have done a line test and everything is ok. i am also awaiting the arrival of my new wireless router(could that help??). i have also downloaded the newest version of shareaza, and i have set it all up and have done the line test, which fails?
it comes back saying
Results
TCP: The TCP connection has timed out. This can be due to a stealth firewall or router that has not been configured properly for Shareaza.
UDP: No answer has been received from your client. This can have various reasons, like that your firewall or router isn't properly configured for Shareaza, or Shareaza is not running on this port, or not connecting to the networks.
At least one problem has been detected and you probably have to configure your firewall or router for Shareaza. If you need help with configuring your firewall or router, visit this page on the wiki: FAQ: Routers/Firewalls.
