No Host To Connect To!!!
 
Well since i have been searching these forums for awhile ill post up what everyone keeps asking for.

1. OS version? Windows XP Pro
2. What firewalls you have? I sure just the windows one
3. How much ram? 512mb
4. Hard Disk space available? 100 GB
5. Connection type? Wireless Broadband 54mbs
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? Airlink AR315W
7. Where are you trying to connect from. HOME
8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? LW 4.12.11 Java 1.5.0_03
9. Who is your ISP provider (Internet Service Provider) Adelphia
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? Test Worked
11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? 3 other PC's on the same home network
12. Experienced user

SO i have tried port forwarding and going into the router and making another open port for LW and configuring LW for the new port and such. My problem is that i get no host to connect to in the connections tab in LW. This LW is on my laptop and has not worked for the 3 days that i have had it. I have had no problems on my home PC. Funny thing is that it will find my home PC as a host and thats it.
Can someone please point me in the right direction?

Hi Bob.
Have you followed your router instructions that came with your
CD, Browse CD, info for your particula router is on there.
Have you enabled UPnP on your Router?
Get back

I havent followed any instructions for the router but i did go into the router and make sure that the LW port was there for my laptop. UPnP is on and i have tried many different ports through LW and the router.

1st, configure XP's firewall; Firewall configuration instructions (click on link).

Now if you attempted port forwarding, (remember if you're running LW on more than one computer & each is port forwarded they must be PF'd with different ports ... not the same one. And PF must be done from each computer since PF is based around the comp's network ip), then you should also make sure you configured LW for Port Forwarding. Have you been to http://portforward.com/routers.htm to check your instructions or similar ones.

XP's firewall is configured and it allows LW to work, i guess but i still have that wall. I even followed the port fowarding instructions and still no avail. When i first start up LW it only tries to connect to the PC's on my network and thats it.
