Hello,
We just recently got satellite internet and a new computer. I am no computer whiz, and can not for the life of me figure out how to get limewire to work. It generally connects to about 3 bars, and sometimes does connect fully, but I am behind a firewall it says. If i do search for a song and try to download it, it downloads really slowly... like 2KB/s

4. Hard Disk space available? 74.5 GB
5. Connection type? satellite
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? ViaSat Surfbeam Satellite Modem SM-100 SM-2000
7. Where are you trying to connect from... Home
8. What version of LimeWire The newest version
9. Who is your ISP provider (Internet Service Provider)? xplornet
10. Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: Your test worked
11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? I dont think so
12. Is this a your 1st try.... 1st try with new computer
13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? Yes

I looked through some of the links with the but am having a hard time understanding it all.

Any help would be great.
