Default Another Connection problem!

Hello. I cant connect to limwire. the service bar at the bottem always shows one green bar. I dont really know a lot about this computer(im only 13). My computor is as follows:
1. OS version? Win xp pro
2. What firewalls you have? windows firewall
3. How much ram? 512
4. Hard Disk space available? about 90gb
5. Connection type? im not sure dsl verison
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? im not sure, it is wireless.
7. Where are you trying to connect from? House
8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? 4.12.11 java: 1.5.0_03
9. Who is your ISP provider? verison dsl
10. Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: it says cannot find server
11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? Office is where wireless is, im using this downstairs in live.room.
12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. first time, brand new!
13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? yep

hopefully someone can diagnose this problem for me. thanks!

Most modem/routers have a nat firewall in them, so it would really help if you could find the name and serial number of yours. You'll probably need to ask your parents what it is. Good luck .

Hi crpbm.
I agree with 6 Pac the router looks like being the main problem.
Your java is also quite old so when you sort the router out, here is a link
to update your java.
To do this! Go to,
START/Set Program Access/Change or Remove Programs,
now completely remove all versions of java.
Now! Use this Link to get JRE 6 Use the off line installer NOT the (recormended) one,
http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp
Disconnect from internet, close ALL apps n reinstall java.

Follow thease instructions exactly.

Any Problems Shout.
Peace.
