When I started I have max_connection = 1000 and hardlimit= 500.
I got some sort of strange failure, which I discovered, where related to the lack of a filter on the ADSL line to drop the noise in both voice and data signal.
Now I put the required filter on the line and amule seems to go well, it isn't fast , but work as I should expected.
And , as you suggest I rerise the value of max_connection = 230 and hardlimit = 180.
I test it with this value and I founded non problem I try to raise their values again.
To summarize it seems that all the previous problems were due to the lack of filter.
Now I make some extensive test to see if other problem remains, like the huge value of socket in close_wait and fin_wait status detected in the past.
thanks to everybody for the help :baby:
