Test Page 'worked'
On a network, but not sharing connection
Was able to connect with free Limewire, but when purchasing pre - doe not connect
Get message "Limewire is currently connecting to the network. Your search may not return many
results until you are fully connected to the network".
Yes, I do see a brick wall.
