[edit] intro
If there are no servers, or many dysfunctional servers in your server list. you can observe the following effect:
- Search server/ global search does not return any results
- Search server/ global search returns obvious fake results with some virus/spyware and incredible amounts of sources.
- You cannot connect to a server
- You find no (new) sources for your downloads, and thus download is very slow.
Note that lowid have a much harder time to connect to servers since the valid servers are overloaded and lowid add far more load. If you have a lowid please review that point also.
[edit] Empty server list
If your serverlist is empty:
- Go to Options/Server
- Set number of errors allowed before removing the server to 9
- Click Edit button that appears next to the option Auto update
- In Notepad, that is opened, add the following lines in the beginning:
http://www.gruk.org/server.met.gz
http://www.peerates.net/servers.php
http://corpo.free.fr/server.met
- Save changes in notepad
- uncheck the two following options Update list of servers
- Click on ok
- Go to servers window
- In Update Server.met from URL, write any of the URL in point 4
- Click on Update button

- Double click on any server
- Once you have get 100 or more Known clients on eD2K go to the Kad window
- Select From known clients
- Click on Bootstrap
[edit] Fake servers
If you suspect fake servers because you get fake search results of find no sources or (as a lowid) get no requests:
- Go to Options/Server
- uncheck "update serverlist when connecting to a server"
- uncheck "update serverlist when a client connects"
- When available: check the option "require obfuscated connection to server" (morph/stullemule)
- Click on Apply/Ok
- Go to servers window
- Rightl click on a server and select "remove all"
- In "Update Server.met from URL", write one of the following url:
http://www.gruk.org/server.met.gz
http://www.peerates.net/servers.php
http://ocbmaurice.dyndns.org/pl/slist.pl/server.met?download/server-best.met
- Click on Update button
- If you have selected "Auto connect only to servers on static list" add the servers you want to static list
- Double click on any server
