I use a D-Link but not a wireless one. Can you ell us the model no. of this router? It will most likely erquire port forwarding which will open port 6346 for LW. I can give you instructions if I know the model. Which Operating System version do you use? Do you have SP2 installed? How much ram do you have?

If you're a windows user try these one by one:

1. Update your Java version 1.5 (take the JRE)

2. Delete the LW Preferences folder called .limewire (whilst LW is closed!) & found here: Windows NT 4.0 / 2000 / XP: C:/Documents And Settings/your_username/.limewire OR Windows 98 / ME: Your .limewire folder is in "C:\My Documents"

3. Repair LimeWire using the Add/Remove Programs utility. Go to Control Panel then Add/Remove Programs & click on Limewire on the Change/Remove button & it comes up with options and one of them is Repair. Try this.

4. Right-clicking the Limewire icon and going to properties and changed compatability setting to Windows 2000.
