Connecting to OpenNap or WPNP? What I usually do when I want to increase my search, is connect to all the OpenNap networks. I usually get on about 1/2. The rest are usualyl full or can't be contacted. Some deny WinMX (VERY few do, which is strange because people complain about this all the time... it's not a problem, no large OpenNap networks ban WinMX, that's why they're, well, large

I do find that downloading ANYTHING from OpenNap is very tough, I usually get a busy, and can't ever remotely queue.

My WPNP trick is to just run a search, wait for the several pages of results that usually come up, hilite the whole chunk, and download all! You're bound to get at least 1 download that will start immediately; just cancel the slow ones later. If not, remote queue some of the ones that say busy, and the download will start soon enough.
