![]() What's your connection like (how many green bars)?? Don't turn off your software firewall, rather configure it to give LW access (only use 1 firewall, otherwise you'll run into trouble) Firewall setup If your connection is poor/nonexistant, do this test & post the result http://www3.limewire.com:6346 You probably should read through this sticky, it has heaps of info about internal firewalls within routers & ways to overcome the problem (enabling UPnP & port forwarding) Connection problems? Check here first! If nothing within that sticky helps, post back with your details OS(Win XP etc) LW & Java version (help > about LW & you'll see) Firewall you're using Modem/router brand & model ISP Connection type (DSL etc) Where you connect from (home, school etc) Are you sharing a connection with other computers Is this your first try with LW |
