Default

In LimeWire, go to Tools > Options. On the "Network" tab, there is a section that says "Listen to Port:"
In this field, type 6346 ( this is the LimeWire default).

If this still doesn't work and LW gives you more error messages, such as incoming port not found or you are not being connected at all, download an alternate version of LW that might work for you from this location:

Default Thank you!

Thank you for the advice. It already had that port number in the area you told me to go, so I am getting that other version of limewire to see if it will make things better.

I appreciate your time.

Thank you. :-)
