i cannot connect with limewire.
I have added the two gnutella port as requested, my internet firewall is norton internet firewall 2006 and I have permitted all access to limewire, and I have windows xp home edition sp1.
I have blueyonder from telewest ISP awith cable modem motorola sb4200
limewire was working fine then it just stopped connecting.
The bug report says "false"
I run limewire 4.10.9
I did the test on the site and it said "your test worked"

I have Mac OS tiger, I have tried all instructions (except I did not know what numbers I had to write for TCP and UDP port numbers when setting a new firewall. I put 6346 for both. read it somewhere). I tried deleting the preferences folder.But it still did not work out. I dont know what else to try. any suggestions?

hi to all.
until yersterday i was downloading from limewire with 3KB and the connectivity was full. today it cant connect. can anybody help me?

i STILL HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM THAT I HAVE ALWAYS HAD-Waiting for stable connections

i have read through this forum and tried every tip that i could find. im using windows xp and i dont mean to repeat what has already been said but i was downloading fine from limewire and suddenly it wouldn't work anymore. I have tried deleting the .limewire file and i disabled tips and i changed to manual connection. i also tried switching off all firewalls but yet limewire still is detecting one blocking the connection. my firewall setting are definitely set to allow limewire to function. i would be very grateful if anyone out there can help! when it did work for me, i loved this site and really want to get it back up running again! really dont want to let ludite tendancies take over with me!
thanks in advance!

What are your details?

OS(Win XP etc)
LW & Java version (help > about LW & you'll see)
Firewall you're using
Modem/router brand & model
ISP
Connection type (DSL etc)
Where you connect from (home, school etc)
Are you sharing a connection with other computers
Is this your first try with LW

Double check your firewall (only run one at a time), there's a link here
Connection problems? Check here first!
Do the port test & see what result you get (link in thread)

thanks for replying.

java version
firewalls only xp firewalls - have no other installed

You could try changing ports (see my second link) but I'm not sure that it'll do much good.

OK i got the same prob as most of U 'cept i can't connect to the network it goes from, "Turbo-Charged" to "Starting Connection"

My comp. stats are as follows...

OS- win98 se
650mhz Pentium III
13.9gb HDD
LimeWirePRO 4.10
that test worked
and i have a DIAL UP thing

PLZ help this is really starting to tick me off------Thanx

Well, here it goes.

I've been a limewire user for years, and i've been keeping up with the versions (currently with 4.10.9.) and recently i've come across a cripling problem. My limewire, out of nowhere, pulled a "fatal error" that had something to do with my version of java, which i fixed. That was about a month ago, and since then i havn't been able to connect. It remains on "you are currently connecting to the network", yet it is still downloading a movie i started downloading before this whole fiasco (at up to 50kbps!). I tried everything i could think of, and wound up here.

Here are some of my details:
Windows xp home edition sp2
Limewire 4.10.9
I tried the internet test and it worked just fine.
The bug report said "False"
I have cogeco high speed internet
When i view the "direct connect" tab under search, it says my computer is behind a firewall or router.
My connection status is "leaf" and i have no hosts
I work from a wireless network.

I love limewire, and i would greatly appreciate any sort of help.
And help the guy above me as well!

Good luck everyone,
Jake.
