ISP's known to BLOCK or Filter p2p or specifically Limewire
Quote: Packet loss occurs when one or more packets of data travelling across a network fail to reach their destination. Packet loss can be caused by many conditions, some common ones including:
* Signal degradation over the network medium
* Oversaturated network links
* Corrupted packets rejected in-transit by intermediary nodes or the destination node
* Faulty networking hardware
Lost (or 'dropped') packets can result in highly noticeable performance issues
You can contact your ISP and tell them you're suffering from packet loss. While most residential ISPs don't guarantee uptime, speed or ping times, they usually do guarantee against packet loss. Before contacting your ISP, do a traceroute to Linden Lab. In Windows:
* Go to Start, Programs, Accessories, Command Prompt
* Type the following command:
tracert (you will need to ask our ISP what address to add here) > traceroute.txt
* After a few seconds, the prompt will come back up.
* Type the following command:
type traceroute.txt
* The problem point will either have very high numbers or astrices next to it. Since its a text file, you can also ISP this evidence to your ISP.
Best advice is to ask your ISP about doing this .. ask them for an address to apply to the traceroute so they can know where the problem is. If possible borrow a router/modem & see if you have same problem (you will need the drivers for it though.)
(BTW here is an example of one i did some time ago:
