Hey there folks.
Thanks for the advice, it's not yet been resolved. Due to (other) problems, my net speed has been pretty shitty and only just come back to me now. I will be following up on the suggested aps. Agreed, MM...something is definately up, I'm aware of usage happening unintentionally through browsing etc but the numbers were just too damn big to consider that possibility. Also - Dodo is the ISP or reseller anyways. I pay $100 AUD and get the connection, a phoneline (Calls are reasonable), and 100gb both on and off peak, uploads count.

How can I disable my firewall?
Just temporily?
See, I use a P2P application called dc++ and ever since I changed my isp it hasn't been performing great in terms of search results. I found out this was because it was connecting "passively". I went to active, and won't work on account of my firewall. Now disabling that might not be the best idea, but it's only temporary for while I use it. I tried the port forwarding thing for a direct connection but I either fucked it up or it doesn't work. So can anyone help me out here?

You should be able to do it in your settings somewhere?
I had the same problem and neither fowarding the ports or turning the firewall off helped! There's a thing on the soulseek website that might help you out.

For XP -
Start ---> Control Panel ---> Security Center ---> Firewall ON/OFF

You potentially have to consider 2 firewalls.
1. Software firewall. This is the Windows Firewall or 3rd party firewall if you have a security suite installed. This is easy to disable. Either through Control Panel if it is Windows firewall (as above), or in the application's preferences/options if it is 3rd party. 2. Hardware firewall. You will have one of these if you have a router or modem/router in your network/internet connection. This isn't as simple to disable. What you have to do with this is "port forward". That is, you have to tell your router to forward all traffic that hits specific ports (find out what ports your P2P software uses) to a specific internal IP address (eg 168.192.1.1 or something similar). You con find out your internal IP address by opening a command line and typing "ipconfig" without the quotes. Google your router make and model and "port forward" and you should find specific instructions for your router.

Is my bandwidth being sapped?
I was just wondering if this is possible.
I have no wireless or anything - some of you might recall me having concerns about impossibly large amounts of usage fucking with my connection, and having me cut in speed before the month is out. Someone recommended a program called wireshark to me, but seriously I couldn't be FUCKED figuring that thing out, and it doesn't even seem to do what I need anyway. What I need? Something that can tell me, in terms/numbers I will understand not being a tech geek... a: If my connection is being used by more than one pc/system b: What's being downloaded and uploaded at any given time c: Figures of usage, my own usage - like, my totals in the event its the isp pulling some didgy shit, which I wouldn't put past THEM either. Recos?

So is your set up a single PC that is physically attached to a modem via a ethernet cable?
c: Figures of usage, my own usage - like, my totals in the event its the isp pulling some didgy shit, which I wouldn't put past THEM either. For this I use Bandwidth monitor Pro - ver simple to use. Theres lots of programs that can tell if your what Pcs are attached to your network. This one finds the MAC ADDRESSES on machines on the network. There prolly free ware version of similiar programs. Hope this is a start.
