| Hey, I've been having problems with connecting. I installed Limewire Pro about a week ago and it's still not connected. It used to come up with a message saying 'you have no internet connection' and 'limewire may be behind a firewall'. But I'm connected and I have allowed Limewire to access the network. I'm my isp provider may be blocking it However, two days ago I got a full turbo connection for an hour or so. But after that it still says 'starting connection' but no message comes up about the firewall or anything. I'm confused. HELP!1. OS version? Windows XP 2. What firewalls you have? Windows Firewall 3. How much ram? 1GB 4. Hard Disk space available? 105 GB 5. Connection type? Broadband Wireless 6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? Buffalo WBMR-G54 7. Where are you trying to connect from: Home 8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? LW 4.12.11 PRO Java 1.5.0_03 9. Who is your ISP provider (Internet Service Provider)? Plus net 10. Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: Test worked 11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? Yes, sharing a wireless connection with a PC in the kitchen and a laptop. I have the laptop. 12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user: Not my first try, not really an experienced user 13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? yes 14. Have you given full permisions for LimeWire to pass through your Firewall ? Yes 15.
