I have a symmetrical Internet 20/20
how should I configure eMule to use it in the best possible way ?
as it is with +/- 250 kb / s upload and gets hours to get to use 90% of the network

Welcome to this hybrid network and thank you for taking the initiative into your upload incentive to share with others. As we try to share much as possible in this last true 2G(ED2K)/3G(KAD) network. Now when you said Sym 20/20 you mean 20Mbps FTTH/N I assume? As you know alot of factor goes into play if you think logically. The number of files you sharing OVER the type of content it is as it can be new/rare over demand. Then comes the client's bandwidth capacity as they requesting chunks from you over number of other sources sending to them if available along the fixed bandwidth quota for download. I have PURE 100Mbps upload link here and the max upload I ever saw was cumulatively was 2.34 MB/s. As during normal operation its between 200kB/s to 1.5MB/s and max upload speed I ever saw to client was 600-610kB/s. So just keep adding things and THEY WILL COME.

If you have a symmetrical connection, you will be able to upload data to the Internet, whilst also being able to download large files, without loss of bandwidth.

This is not 100% entirely true but almost.Ifyou saturate your upload bandwidth, you cannot really download too much because high speed dowload requires a not so tiny upload due to sending back the "received thanks" packages.

@xSTHNSx what do you mean with 2G/3G ? 2nd and 3rd generation? Where do you find the classification in "generation" of networks?

@pier4r
Yes G; generation. As its just commonly known among us P2Per's, not like ISOC/IETF published RFC with official guidelines regarding which classify under what network. But as over time P2P has nautrally eveloved through many stages of desgine for effective content disrubation.

1G (Napster) = Centerlized
2G (KaZaA) = Decentralized
3G (Kademlia) = DHT

In short we went from UseNET (dark age) to DarkNET (golden age) and these 3 stages falls under P2P (middle age). Now hopefully I don't need to tell you regarding these 3 stages of P2P evolution as its history now and well documented the pros/cons of each. So ED2K(2G-P2P)/KAD(3G-P2P) with our P2P footprint below 3% where Torrent accounts for majority of P2P traffic for past decade.

Thanks for the clarification. Besides yes, ed2k accounts for 3% of the network but this has also advantages (the marginal utility for blockers and spammers is too low to invest in it).

I did not get "darkNet", i know usenet, that were/are newsgroups but not darkNet. Or is it just a label for "shady" networks?

I mean we both know that wasn't always like that. As once this network was healthy with massive userbase so it was targeted also as we had our problem also with Anti-P2P MediaCorp injecting bogus files to legit servers while starting up endless ed2k fake servers for poisoning. Then shutdown of RazorBack and eDonkeyServer ect, so yeah we had our share of problems also. We have 200k+ active users at any given time with near 1.5m rotational but we are still operating with mentality from last decade as majority of folks migrated to torrent so now they are targeting that.

Server: got reply with additional UDP packet.
Ignoring: unknown port receiving a UDP packet.

Now on another matter I only came online now as I received various alerts from few of my nodes regarding possible DDoS attack. So when I checked iptables and rsyslog I see 6xRU, 5xGR, 2xCH IPs. Now I suspect that was due to me deploying httpd and granting full autonomous access to my network on /r/opendir for 7days as it expired less than 12hours ago. Now those same possibly compromised nodes that attacked my network will go offline 1 by 1 as it happened last month when I received similar type attack and we had big discussion in #networking regarding it. They never manage to knock even 1 of my nodes offline as it just absorbed their whole bandwidth didn't even need to /bin/iproute null as I deployed my own custom iptables with DDoS in mind with node behind 1gbps optimized route handling up to 3gbps on each with total of 15gbps load balance.

Connecting to eMule Security No1 (91.200.42.46 - 91.200.42.46:1176) using protocol obfuscation.
Connected to eMule Security No1 (91.200.42.46:1176)
WARNING: eMule Security No1 (91.200.42.46:1176) - NG : You have a lowid.

Maybe unrelated but I'm not sure if eMule Security servers are also being DDoSed or their sys-admin just rebooted the servers, who knows. Makes no difference to me Ill just take those node offline that sent out DDoS attack on my end as I have enough bandwidth to wipe out a block currently.
