Default Having problems connecting

1. OS version? Windows XP Home
2. What firewalls you have? None
3. How much ram? 512MB
4. Hard Disk space available? 74.5 GB
5. Connection type? (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.) Broadband
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? Not sure, uni wireless
7. Where are you trying to connect from (house, appartment complex, school, student accomodation, work, etc.)? University
8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? (Go to LW's menu Help>About LW...) 4.16.6 with Java 1.6.0_05
9. Who is your ISP? Aliant
10. Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ The page should say 'Your test worked!'. What happens when you go there? My test worked.
11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up. It's a university wireless network, we all sign in with our own passwords and user names.
12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. It works on my laptop which has the same version
13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? Yes.
14. What security programs are you using (antivirus etc)? None.

This computer, when back home was doing the same thing so I'm not sure what the problem is. It seems to be cursed with P2P, as my laptop is on the same connection and works perfectly fine.
