Freezing - some possible causes
Most people who have been you servers for some time will have probably experienced freezing at some point.
There are several things that will cause freezing, also remember you have no control over what is happening on the server you are connected to. A lot of the problems come from the other end.
Firstly, when you allocated your router ports, set them for TCP/UDP.
You can test if the ports are opening by going here:
http:// www. amule.org/testport.php
Common causes are:
Your internet connection is slow.
The person you are connected to has slow internet connection.
You have the same C Line active in more than one receiver - you can't do that.
You have two different C lines to two different servers - both supplying the same card. This can cause problems.
You are receiving the same card on hop1 & hop2 etc.. filter the hop2's out.
The server is overloaded at the other end.
An overloaded hop1 server can cause your file to connect to a Hop2 instead - but then keeps trying to get back on the hop1.
Because a guys card shows you hop1 - it does NOT mean it is hop1 - or he even has a card. There are methods of faking this - and a lot out there doing it. Try another server with the same card to compare.
Some hop2's can be faster than some hop1's - filter them out.
Your Ccam config is not optimized.
Your dish is not tuned correctly to the sat.
Some people will not accept a connection that is slower than 100ms. If a connection is around 400ms - it is quite possible that person does not have the relevant card.
Certain cards freeze/glitch if the other persons file is not set up correctly.
As mentioned above, you have no control over the set up at the other end. Sometimes you have to try several sources to test for a reliable server.
