some of my nodes seem to only feature yellow and/or red icons today. also after several restarts, they become supernodes, but witz zero other neighbors/supernodes connected and so on...

maybe theres some trouble on the wuala network as of lately.

instable.

50%? sounds like a second user has been logged into your client/machine on the wuala software....

wuala uptime/online time gets divided by as many users as there have been ever logged into that machine/wuala setup/software.....

you have to allow the java or the wuala.exe process to accept inbound/outbound connections ofcourse.

norton crap is configurable, but its still crap.

why are you people bringing up stuff that has absolutely nothing to do with wuala at all.

as for 50%cpu usage, that is also possible on multicore/smp/numa environments. wuala only seems to use one single thread at maximum core usage, so with a dual-core environment, that makes exactly 50% of total cpu load. on quadcore thats 25% and so on.

before bringing up topics please do think yourselves a little bit about your topics before posting and do some research for starters.

nope you cant. full stop.

nickname replied on August 26, 2008 13:35 to the problem "version check failed, could not connect - all the time for many days now" in Wuala:

it works again by now. one of your http servers in the datancetners was apparently giving bad answers or some script on them was causing this problem.

every time i was looking into the about dialogbox there was a http connection to those servers. maybe somebody ought to go through your webserver logs too from time to time.

nickname replied on August 26, 2008 11:17 to the idea "Monthly Bandwidth Limit and Statistics; feature request" in Wuala:

simple workaround could be calculating the maximum speed that would be allowed for constant trafficflow which generates a certain amount if traffic in total.

that would certainly limit your upload/download caps but with calculating this limit you will be on the safe side.

nevertheless, its not good to rely on providers like these and to support their business model in general.

your 25gig caps as an example would be 9kbytes/sec of total bandwidth consumption for less than 25gigs, with a month of 31days, equaling something more than 24gigs in total.

those 9kbytes/sec you will have to allocate to both up and downstream speedlimits in total, in certain ranges that make sense ofcourse.

so maybe like 5kbytes/sec down and 4kbytes/sec upspeed.

this will result in crappy behaviour of wuala ofcourse, but will always comply with your providers bandwidth cap limits.

ewwwwwwwww........ :D

even better, opensource completely, and there will be many ports of wuala onto many platforms and with many programminglanguages.

version check failed, could not connect - all the time for many days now

the about dialogbox always fails to check for a new version, since many days now. no matter how often the wuala client is being restarted, no matter on what networks the wuala clients runs. no matter if firewall, nat, completely open.....

nickname replied on August 25, 2008 12:49 to the idea "Monthly Bandwidth Limit and Statistics; feature request" in Wuala:

common limits examples are utter crap. i dont know any sort of provider that enforces those numbers.

so make it adjustable for any wuala user, that would help most, if at all.

second: following some bandwidth and transfer limits just plays into the hands of these crappy providers. it maybe be inviting to follow bandwidth rules at first, but this only helps these fuckedup providers to stay in the market.

people should swap providers if possible. if everbody agrees to these crazy rules, no matter if its bandwidth or who know what will be next (hail to network neutrality discussion), then these providers will continue to fuck their customers for good.

shut down those providers instead of trying to adjust to crap that you actually dont agree with at all in the first place.

shutting down providers will come with the loss of customerbase and boycotting these retarded companies.

have fun.

nickname replied on August 20, 2008 13:10 to the problem "Upload macht I-Net-Verbindung zu" in Wuala:

spaetestens bei ipv6 duerft ihr soho-user sowieso alle wieder neue hardware vom provider ziehen bzw mal kohle investieren und wieder mal jahrelang fuer die entwickler aber auch eure provider betatester spielen. das ist kein grosses geheimnis mehr dass die massenmarkt provider ihren kunden immer nur die unterste kategorie an service aber auch an hardware zukommen lassen.

insofern sollten hier alle mal n reality check machen und es zugeben dass man eben fuer dumpingpreise in den meisten breitbandmaerkten weltweit (industrienationen) keine ordentlichen leistungen erwarten kann.

die grossen telcos und (ex-)monopolisten haben ihren eigenen markt abgeschossen bzw den avaragesellingprice so weit heruntergetrieben und dabei die kundenbdingszeiten und knebelvertraege mit jahrelangen laufzeiten so sehr erhoeht dass jetzt alle denken es wuerde nicht mehr anders gehen.

die unwissenden kunden denken jetzt eben breitband muesse so aussehen wie es derzeit angeboten wird, und dass man aus mittelmaessigen produkten die zwar meistens uebelst billig sind eigentlich nirgendswo anders hin wechseln kann weil kaum ein provider mit einem produkt aus der mittelmaessigkeit herauszuragen vermag.

vergleich bloss mal n paar preise was man in europaland und anderen maerkten fuer lebensmittel, housing und energie bezahlt und dann setz das mal in relation zu breitbandpreisen.

jeder der nicht der absolute obderdau oder vollzonk ist, versteht von selbst dass der breitbandmarkt kaputtgedumpt wurde.
