You can try my gnutella.net file.

Download it and copy it into your limewire directory (C:\program files\LimeWire). That should enable you to connect if the pong caches (router.limewire.com etc.) don't get you connected.

If even this file doesn't help you, - it's a problem with your own network configuration and I can't help you.
