thank you lord of the rings but
 

Thank you very much. You helped me yesterday night!
Now I can connect to Limewire, but when I start Limewire and want to download a track, I cannot downloading faster than 1 Kb/s anf this is impossible because I am always downloading from 4 or even more PC´s.
Could you please help me once more?
I use the router Zyxel Prestige 600, but I do not use any firewalls,
and now work with windows2k. I have an usual DSL-Internet.
Do you need more information to help me??

You can open a port for LW: Port 6346 This will allow LW requests & uplding from you. Whether it directly affects your dwnlds I'm not sure. But having people uplding from you will improve your search & dwnld results.

1. I don't have instructions specifically for your model but see if this works for you: Port Forwarding instructions for the ZyXEL Prestige 623 But you will need to set up a static ip 1st! Link to instructions are provided there.

2. Make a note of all your LW option settings then, delete the LW Preferences folder called .limewire (whilst LW is closed!) & found here:
C:/Documents And Settings/your_username/.limewire

3. Also force ip within LW: Force IP instructions & sample image

4. Update your Java: Java 1.5 (take the JRE)



Some xtra hints: A well set-up LW can start to automatically continue its dwnlding after it's settled down perhaps 2 out of 3 times you open LW. Optimising LW & Maximising Uplds & Dwnlds A (1st post only) & also Part B which is even better & last & least are search & dwnld hints. The latter one I've been thinking about re-writing for some time. That's just for playing it safe. eg- I show all speeds & qualities.

I need help
 

hello, I am using:
DSL,WindowsXP,NO FIREWALL and a router Zyxel Prestige 600.
I can connect to the network, but it seems that I can connect to the other computers,
but sometimes there stands, downloading from 6 computers, but the problem is: I cannot download faster than 1kB/s!!!
Please help me!!

OK you should forward a port (open a port) for your router. See HERE (probably best to choose 1st in results.) BUT you must 1st set up a static ip which is explaned in a link on the previous page link (2nd line.) You should use Port 6346

If you should still have problems after this it means your router does not support UPnP so see here: Force IP instructions & sample image

Common Firewall configurations for LW can be found here: http://www.limewire.com/english/content/firewalls.shtml

ALso update your Java: Java 1.5 (take the JRE)

Lord Of the rings I need your help!
 

Hello,
I opened the port you told, but it still does not work, I cannot únderstand this, because in the past it worked.
When I start LimeWire, immedetially there stands " downloading from 3 Computers " ore even more than 3 but only 1kB/s.
What is wrong??

By the way if Force IP doesn't work very well, then use UPnP instead if you're using LW 4.4 or 4.6
