ok my issue is im not receiving a connection i recently crashed my laptop and before the crash i had no problems at all. currently it says starting connection in the bottem left but dont receive any. i've uninstalled and reinstalled but no luck im hoping someone can help me. thank you for your time

Double check your XP firewall config & make sure LW's allowed.
Firewall setup

In LW, click on File > disconnect. Wait a couple of mins then File > connect.

Why can't you provide your modem/router details? The brand & model should be written on the router. if your router has an internal firewall, that could have something to do with your connection problem. But how would we know, unless we know what device you're using??:blink:
