I was seriously considering getting LWPro but I'm reconsidering it because of the huge issues I've been having with my connection. I've been on the forum all night trying this and that...i've reset my defaults, then re-disabled Firewalls and such. uninstalled & reinstalled LW and Java a few times. In the past week LW has been connected for maybe an hour.

It seems like it only connects when it wants to. I've never had any problems until about a month ago. Please someone help me figure this out before i end my realtionship with LW once and for all. (I'd hate to do that, I do prefer to other P2P networks!)
