Nir, you are absolutely correct that the solution for Xfinity users is to turn off the advanced security option. This was driving me crazy because after literally hours on the phone with Xfinity your app's name never came up, btw and them assuring me that what I was seeing wasn't what I was seeing, I got frustrated, turned them off I still have other security and restarted soulseek.
Back to working order. Well, after much frustration about the downloading issues I discovered on the trasfer tab under downloads that at the bottomthat my "limit download speed" box was checked and limited to 1 kb.
Working fine. I don't remember checking that box. Something i noticed is that if your shared folder is external and SSD you will have this problem. Im trying to see if this is true for the downloads folder.
Ok so here is what I tried. This only started yesterday. This seems to be a big issue. I literally use Slsk every day. This can't be happening!!! Please help Nir Abel. Oh yeah i also port forwarded and nothing happened. Sorry about all of that. No worries. Happens to us all. I haven't seen a finished upload yet. I am hoping to fix this with the next laptop which I will be getting real soon. I'm quite new to ssk so when my downloads started aborting I didn't have a clue why, still don't.
I have gone through the settings and all looks fine. This one is easy. Go into your options then file sharing. If I use the search feature it will lock up SoulSeek all together and I have to end the process from task manager. It can be quite sluggish and get stuck when going through the tabs to different parts.
Apart from the 3 problems mentioned above all works well it's a shame but I am certain you will be able to squash these bugs in a future release :D. Try this build, it's with the new Qt 5. After launching the program it freezes after about 30 seconds or so regardless of what part of the program I am in.
I've tried downloading and installing the latest version and older versions. No luck. Any other thought or suggestions on how to make the best file sharing program in the world work on W10? Soulseek now works perfectly. Thanks for your help and time. I've noticed this bug. When I leave slsk for the night. I get closed ports by the morning. How can I fix this?
I have to restart slsk so ports can be open again. I didn't have this problem with windows 7. For Windows 10 users, it would be a good idea to make the default window background colour white instead of light grey, so that Soulseek feels more native. Hi, It may have nothing to do with Windows 10 as i had no problems so far with the older client.
I'm sure that there must be a solution, but I'm getting nervous. Oh, and the high RAM usage only seems to happen with a wired connection. When I'm trying to use Soulseek wirelessly, only the internet connection is affected.
Hi eccles as it happens with the other profile as well it's no config setting, so the import is not necessary. With Port Forwarding your client can hear and reply on the IPv4, so that's why it's necessary.
As PF works in the same way as to expose your client machine on this forwarded ports only to the internet it works only with the Inet IP. There's no explanation I have for this behavior apart from a DMZ "attack like" flooding.
Case: when you change the ports to e. Interestingly, the Port Checker still says that both ports are open and configured properly when the internet is briefly working. And when the internet connection is able to remain active, Soulseek IS working. The problem remains that the internet quickly dies. It comes back for a few seconds at a time, every few minutes, but only works normally when I close Soulseek.
I agree that some of the symptoms seem to suggest "attack like" flooding, but I can't figure out why that would suddenly be an issue after never being a problem for so many years.
I saw in some older threads that people sometimes have to increase the half-open TCP connections limit, but everything that I have read said that this is not an issue with Windows 7 since it does not impose a limit.
So I really don't know what else to think. Is the Upnp Feature deactivated? Else it would when upnp works, which is rare open the right ports automatically. More modern router are able to detect P2P Systems and a block it or b open their gates so no config is needed to it.
Have you changed your ISP or Router as well? My ISP has not changed, and I know that it does not block Soulseek at least in this area, as many of my friends still use it with no problem on both PC and Mac. I DO have a new router, but my Soulseek problems started before I got it and it has not had any negative impact on other P2P programs.
In fact, everything else actually works better with this router than my old one. Unfortunately, I do not have a second PC with Windows 7. I have a much older computer with XP. I will test it and report. QT worked fine on it the last time that I tried, but that was at least a year ago. Also, I have been trying to leave QT running in the background for longer periods of time. The problems seem less serious when I am not searching for or downloading anything; but the problems still do happen.
Nobody has tried to grab anything from me for quite a while, which I do think is strange. I don't know whether or not this information is useful, but I figured it couldn't hurt to share it. Again, thanks. Update: Soulseek Qt build No problems.
I haven't updated the build because I'm nervous about it causing the same problems that have happened on my day-to-day computer. SLSKqt works even on Windows machines, so don't worry. It's all about finding the flaw. So it's not a SLSK problem with your network which is good to know. I'd advise to disable upnp on the Win7 machine and forward the ports manually and put the right values into SLSK and after a restart of SLSK test if it's still a problem.
I turned off UPnP on the Windows 7 client and went ahead and forwarded the ports on my own. The internet connection is still on-and-off, when QT is running BUT the problem is not as bad. The internet would usually stay okay for several minutes and then briefly cut out. It would then come back, stay okay for several more minutes, and then cut back out.
This seemed to happen both when the client was idle and when I was trying to search for or download something. I still don't seem to be returning any results for searches. And the client still hasn't uploaded anything to any other users. Thanks for your continued help!
I'm glad that the problem is at least improving. Hi that's not a real progress. I'd go the way to see what brakes away in your INet connection. If that works even when the Inet connect seems to drop ping some stable website in the internet, like www. Could U describe the "Connection is lost" a bit more? Hi, Sammy. I have no explanation for this, but SoulseekQt has been working well since I starting running it while trying to ping the router.
For the first time in almost a year, everything is fine. I haven't changed anything at all since my last post. I don't understand it, but I am not complaining. If the problems return, then I'll make another post. Thank you so much for your help and patience! I really appreciate it.
