jammer99 is flying high
Default Satellite modem no connection

OS:XP Home
P4
2Ghz
1G RAM
Trying LW 4.12.6

I have Skyway Internet which is dial-up out and Sat in. Work's wonderful for normal app's. P2P is a different story. I've been fed bit's & piece's from this " Bible Belt " firm about how to hook up to LW but no solid support for the last few weeks. Have tried http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ and checks OK. Disabled Window's Firewall, uninstalled all other's but am FW'd by the modem. Have Netgear MR814 V2 as a get around for SW-10 modem FW but still no luck. Anybody with some advice on this issue ?

Your Netgear has an internal firewall. If the router supports UPnP, enable it & choose the UPnP option within LW's tools > options > advanced > firewall config.Apply to save a change.

Or you could try port forwarding. See the instructions below for your router

Don't forget to set up a static IP address first.

Sorry, but I can't find any useful info about your satellite modem
