Connecting problems I've used Limewire for a while now and never had a problem. A few days ago I've been stuck on connecting. Although it says that there's a firewall detected it hasn't interfered with it up to this point. I'm using Windows XP at home with about 2-3GB of ram and a shaw secure firewall. I've made sure that the firewall allows Limewire but nothing works. I've also noticed that I'm not the only one that has had this problem recently. I have Limewire 4.12.11 and Java 1.6.0_01 according to Limewire. |
System details - help us to help you (click on blue link) for a few more details. BTW if you are usiing a Shaw firewall, then I hope XP firewall is disabled. XP firewall and most others don't normally work well with others active, & in fact generally results in less security not more due to them clashing. |
Let's see here, I have a cable connection and there's another computer using a wireless router to mine. Yes, Windows firewall is disabled. And I was way off with the drive space. I've got 37.2 GB total with 5.44 GB left. The test says it worked. I have no other P2P programs or anything like it except for Limewire of course. If you need any other information let me know. |
Ok wireless routers have internal NAT firewalls, question is whether yours uses UPnP or not. What brand & model is it? I presume you are connecting from home? I presume you have latest version LW & Java? Who is your ISP? |
I have the latest LW but I'm not sure about Java. Yes I'm at home but I have no clue what UPnP is. I doubt the router has anything to do with it since this computer is using a cable connection but I believe my router is a Vonage brand. I have no clue what so ever what the problem could be though as nothing has changed that would alter LW in any way. But if you could tell me a link to a page to update my Java that would be really helpful as well. (I stated the versions of LW and Java I had in first post btw.) |
