i do have another modem (the Same) so i could try that, although would it just affect limewire, it's been zapped before in a storm and it cut out all my internet, would it just cut out limewire

You wouldn't think so, you would think it would affect all internet connections..
I need to go back and have a look at your set up again, hang tight...

thanks

It's definatley got to be Tiscali that's doing this to you...I just had another poster with the same problems as you...

The only thing I can suggest is to try at different times of the day and night or change to a different ISP...

should i give tiscali a ring. i have been trying at different times of the day

oh yes, is there a different program similar to limewire that i could try so if i cannot connect with that i know it's not limewire but tiscali

I will eat my mouse mat if its not tiscali. LOL
Peace.
