I don't know most of what that stuff is but I've had Limewire for a long time now and its always worked. Just recently shows these bars. Don't know how to fix it.

Im also having the same problem as this. I have recently updated my LW version, and also upgraded my broadband from 2meg to 8meg, not sure which one may be the problem.

1. Windows XP
2. Windows Firewall, also running Avast Anti-virus but this has been no trouble before.
3. 512mb DDR400
4. Not sure?
5. Broadband
6. Intel 537EP V9x DF PCI Modem, Speedtouch 330 router
7. House
8. Limewire 4.12.11 Java 1.5.0_03
9. Homecall Broadband (Pipex)
10. Your test worked!
11. No
12. Used previous versions fine.
13. Yes, but have tried adding an exception to windows firewall

Any help would be greatly apprieciated!

think i figured out the roblem but dont know how 2 fix it. I read the thread "connection problems check here first" and it said that some cable modems can cause the trouble, i recently installed a new one but i dont understand becasue after that it didn't work and i am currently using my old one again unless some blocking from the new one is still in the network somehow.

I'd say when you upgraded your broadband Pipex have started to shape your connection...They are well known for doing this...
