connecting to limewire
 
Due to being new to the group, I failed to post correctly. Sorry about that.....I see alot of folks are having the same problem as I am on connecting to Limewire. I am operating windows xp. My firewall is microsoft windows. My connection type is dsl. I am using a modem/router that is a westell versalink Model 327W. It is UPnp enabled, I think. I am running version of Limewire 4.12.11 and Java 1.6.0. My isp is Bellsouth. I have tried disabling the firewall and still can't connect to Limewire. I was able to connect on Limewire yesterday. I haven't done anything different(downloaded anything, etc.). I'd appreciate any help that I can get in resolving this problem. Thanks, Wanda

How to use Manual Port faward

Universal Plug and Play may not be working properly Due to this update. "Security Update for Windows XP (KB931261)"
Removing this update is not Recomended & could make your computer vonarable to attack.

If this update is installed on your computer & UPnP is in use in Limewire,
Try switching to Manual Port faward, using port numbers between 45000 To 65000
Both Manual Port faward No, & Listerning port should be set at the same number
In LimeWire, GO to Tools/Options/Advanced/Firewall Config & use Manual Port faward.

If you are using a router to connect, that will also need configuring.
Find your router listed here, Use this blue link. & dont forget to create a static IP first, & click apply after changing each setting.
