I am a school teacher who just bought an iPod. I'm going to school for my masters in technology in education so I know little about what I'm doing....not a lot. I'm not real good at this forum thing. One of my students recommended LW. I installed it and it worked for about 3 days, then while I was using it my whole Internet service crashed. I reinstalled my Internet service and now LW does not work. I tried all the suggestions and it still does not work. One thing when I go to connections on LW it is empty when I put in some of the suggested IP's they don't stay there for very long. Could this be an issue???

Can you please help!!!

Thank you
