Question Nothing has worked. I cannot connect to the Gnutella network - Help ?

Hi everyone!

I have searched pretty much every website, and tried every little fix out there, but I can not connect to the Gnutella network!. I tried that test site on LimeWire.com, and according to that, my ISP (charter) isn't blocking p2p.

I'm now using FrostWire (since its pretty much LimeWire pro, only blue). I have Java 6 update 5. I'm using Norton 360 as my firewall, and I have been opening frostwire as an administrator (in order to bypass UAC)

Specs:
Toshiba A205 laptop
Intel Core2 Duo 1.7ghz(x2)
2048mb ram
120gb hard drive (60gb free)
connected through wireless g
Intel PROWireless 3495abg
Router: NETGEAR wpn824 v2 (w/latest firmware)
FrostWire 4.13.5 (latest)

i just don't know what to do anymore!
When i look at the connections, it tries to connect, and drops them after about 3 seconds. Then, it completely stops trying to attemps, and says I have a turbo-charged connection, but i am really only connected to 4 servers.

after waiting a few minutes, i get this error message:



and not just one, but hundred of these errors. i had to take the batt. out of my computer to shut it down...

so any help would be greatly appreciated! i love downloading songs with this because its so fast, and i can't live without it!
