Thanks for the reply.

Bizarrely in the last half an hour or so LW has decided to connect and I now have 5 bars again, still cant get anything to download though.

I will download a magnet link as suggested. My ISP is Plus Net, I got them to put in writing to me that they are not blocking the Gnutella netework.

I could not download the magnet at all, it went straight to the 'need more sources' message in LW.

So it looks like Plus Net have not been entirely truthful with me, I am planning to move ISP anyway in the new year as they can not even deliver email reliably.

I will try the port range suggested. Can you explain why I get 5 bar connection quality but still cant download anything, is this because of something my ISP is doing?

Thanks.
