Susie, are you a Tiscali user (or does your ISP resell Tiscali)?

Just look at how many Tiscali users are having the same (and other) issues
Tiscali & Limewire
can't connect between 5pm-11pm
I have found a solution to getting Limewire to work with Tiscali

Hi
No I'm not a Tiscali user. I was once but had probs and moved.
I have just tried again and lo and behold 20:29 and I am getting starting connection and no further!
I bet when I try tomorrow morning there will be no problem.
Also I asked my friend whi has a different ISP and surprise surprise he can't connect at certain times!
Really glad I chose to go pro!!!!
It would be nice to hear anyone saying they can connect.
Kind regards
Susie

Hey Susie, at least you can connect. I haven't been able to connect at all. I am likely going to send Limewire a mail to their customer service department. If they want to keep their customers, they better address these issues at the source and not blame it on ISP, Java, router settings, etc and expect the customers to be tech savvy. User friendliness is the key here. I'm going to try to find another download program.

Most UK ISP's now limit p2p speeds during peak times. And some all the time. BTW Tiscali is a very large organisation & have smaller ISP's under their umbrella. ie: they own other ISP's also. Just like most big organisations they buy up as many as they can to keep growing. Tiscali also made a deal with a major ISP in USA. I can't recall which one. Tiscali is not only found in UK but other parts of Europe also. Perhaps a bit of investigation to find out if your ISP has a parent company & who it is.
