Total Insanity is flying high
Default sometimes i connect sometimes i don't wtf

1. OS version? Windows XP
2. What firewalls you have? Windows XP and i guess a linksys wireless router one?
3. How much ram? no idea
4. Hard Disk space available? 60 gigs
5. Connection type? cable
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? modem is webstar, router is wireless-G Broadband router model WRT54G
7. Where are you trying to connect from? [B******[/B]
8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? Limewire 4.12.6 Java 1.5.0_06
9. Who is your ISP provider (Internet Service Provider)? Roadrunner
10. Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ The page should say 'Your test worked!'. What happens when you go there? "Your Test Worked!" is what happened.
11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up. well, i have a router that routes the connection up to another computer and i also share it with some torrent downloader.
12. Is this a your 1st try at FW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. i don't know what FW is sorry.
13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of FW's interface? i have a brickwall in front of the blue world icon in limewire if that's what you mean?

ok, i can connect but it only turns the smallest block green and then it says no connection or i have a firewall. i tried port forwarding and that other thing where you make the exceptions for the XP firewall. sometimes though i can connect and it fills up to 3 blocks and sometimes even 4. i can even download songs when it's like that but then in a few hours it'll go back to know connection. i don't know what is going on because just a month ago everything was going absolutely fine.

i'd VERY MUCH appreciate some insight and hopefully a solution to my problem because it's really wearing thin on my patience after doing everything i could possibly do to make it work when it never had this problem before.
