Thanks wondering why I did that and it worked - router setup as follows under the "virtual server" section (which is basically a "hole in the firewall" section): Name = Limewire.4 Private IP = ***.***.*.* Protocol Type = Both Private Port = 32949 Public Port = 32949 Schedule = Always I don't understand why my DMZ didn't work, as that is supposed to open all ports and directly connect ***.***.*.* to the internet - no holes barred. (At least that's my understanding). Anyway - thanks again. Last edited by 6_pac; May 11th, 2007 at 10:51 PM. Reason: Don't divulge personal information. |

| Maybe you should contact your ISP and explain to them about the powercut as it could be the problem...Maybe your modem/router got zapped...

| 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...
