Download Timeout Issues

[V@MPYRE53]

Windows XP Home Edition SP2
DSL Modem 2 Wire 1000HW
IP SBC YAHOO DSL
Secondary Connection
Zonealarm Firewall (MS Firewall turned off)
I just recently started using WinMX again and have a problem with download queued peers rapidly timimg out, except for current downloads in progress. All queud peers are fiine and then start timiing out within seconds one after another until all are red. Searching for peers to reconnect to brings no results, just sits there waiting for results and after a few minutes seems to stabilize and works fine for awhile then does it again. 
I installed the 3.53 w/ MXpie v2.9 patch, uninstalled -reinstalled/ uninstalled 3.53 and pie and reinstalled 3.53 with 2.2 -noMX patch/ uninstalled that one and used installer 2.2 WinMX  that installs 3.54 w/patch. I tried shutting down firewall, tweaking the timeout settings,  and a number of things to no avail and V@mpyre is gettin' ticked. The only thing I can think of is that my DSL is unstable and is dropping out, but not sure (based on broadband  tests coming back with 3 different answers)
Any HELP on this topic would be greatly appreciated!!

winmx is currently being attacked by riaa flooding the network with fakes and other unsavory tactics.........
since you are using the 2.2 installer from km which blocks riaa you can use it to your advantage when searching for files.......
in the top part of the search window type the artists name or song as usuall in the section below type - user......
this will help to eliminate fake files in your search.........
when the results have loaded on the right hand side there is a button saying ping all results..........
any file that shows a ? is a fake file which is being blocked by the dll patch  any file returning a ping result will be a legitimate file.......
try that see if it helps  if you still have problems either repost back here or come to winmxworld.com room in winmx and we can try see what the issue maybe from there
