Default Connection problems? Check here first!

If you're having connection problems, it's probably related to a firewall problem. Firewall instructions are the same as those for LimeWire.
See sections about 1. Software firewalls, 2. Modem/Router NAT firewalls & enabling UPnP to overcome it, 3. Forwarding a port if your device doesn't support UPnP; Connection problems? Check here first! (click on link)


If you have problems you can't solve then please post a thread giving the following details:

1. OS version? (eg: Windows 98)
2. What firewalls you have?
3. How much ram?
4. Hard Disk space available?
5. Connection type? (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.)
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers?
7. Where are you trying to connect from (home, school, work, etc.)?
8. What version of FrostWire (FW) & Java do you have? (Go to FW's menu Help>About FW...) Will show both FW & Java version.
9. Who is your ISP provider (Internet Service Provider)?
10. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up.
11. Is this a your 1st try at FW or is this a new problem with an experienced user.
12. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of FW's interface?
