| Hey what I'm totally new at this whole firewall thing. I don't have Linksys but I'm having a similar issue. No firewalls on, but can't even search a song. Suggestions? Currently using Windows XP 2002. Oh and this issue comes and goes... Thanks Shanna |

| LW + FW Blocking I have a Linksys router with UPnP enabled and various other p2p clients work fine. I have set it in the router to manually fwd the port to this machine, but no matter what i do it keeps saying trying to connect and has the FW icon. Im using FreeBSD .. any further suggestions ? |

| It is 1 of those with 54 in it, and i had manually port fwd the ports it show sin the setting sin Limewire but it has made no difference, i set it to manually fwd on a set port for both tcp & udp before i left for work, restarted limewire and it is still sitting there trying to connect saying about the firewall .. my torrent program i use works quite well, which is ironic. |

| Did you set up a static ip first before doing the port forwarding? Else the pf rule would not work. You'd need to remove & do it again. Other options: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/connec...t-connect.html You could also try an older version. You'd need to remove the present one first. LimeWire - OldVersion.com LW 4.16 or 4.12 are the ones to try. |
