Don't post the numbers here. They are for your own use.

Do you remember if there has always been a wall in front of the globe in Limewire?

Your router should support UPnP (At least it says so in the specs). If it does then you shoiuld not have had a wall in front of the Globe.

I can't find an online user manual for it which kinda sucks.

I'm finding very little info on your ISP. Can't find any complaints about them shaping or blocking P2P programs due to excessive use. Actually found more users praising their service. The only negative I found was that they had strict rules against running webservers through their normal household services, but that sounded like they would ban the user completely if doing so, so that's not it.

Try changing the listening port to a high number (eg. 64069).

Also try to revert Limewire to default (in the options somewhere). Remember to reset days to keep incomplete files to a higher number when you do.

If you have any incomplete download right now, cancel them. It will only put more stress on the program if it has trouble connecting.

There are other fixes you could try here:

Try this to get into your router. I don't know if it's your exact router but the first three numbers are the same.

If the username and password don't work then you have to call your ISP for the right one. Try to find out if UPnP has been turned of somehow.

You could try Portforwarding if nothing of this works.

Remember the static IP if you do. The numbers I asked you to write down will be needed for it. There is a link from the page above.

Just follow the instructions on the page.
