whats the differencr between frostwire and limewire?
if i did call my ISP could they do any think about it any way? i could just go to the store, their company's like a mile away.
There's not too much diff between LW & FW...FW's based on LW & has a few tweaks (but don't ask me what they are!).
I really suggested calling your ISP to try & find out one way or another whether they're causing your problem. If they're anti-p2p they're not going to do anything to let you connect. It's more for your peace of mind...so you don't go crazy thinking that there's something within your setup causing the problem:wink:

Deadland...someone recently called their ISP under the guise of being a potential customer. They were told that there were measures in place to block p2p. When they'd phoned the helpdesk previously as an existing customer, they got the run-around

Boy, that doesn't surprise me in the least ...

Just sent them another e-mail. I'll try to call them on Monday and see what they say - since I don't expect an e-response to my tech support request. I'll post the response if anyone is interested.

Good luck & yes, please let us know how you get on.
If it turns out that you find they are causing the problem, you can add Suddenlink to the list in the link below...that will help other people in future.
