![]() Used to use Limewire and have not for sometime. Bought a Netgear Router 2 months ago and attempted Limewire for first time tonight. No joy! 1. OS version? (eg: Windows 98) Windows XP Sp2 2. What firewalls you have? Windows & Netgear Router DG834GT 3. How much ram? 1GB 4. Hard Disk space available? 75GB 5. Connection type? (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.) Tiscali Broadband 6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? Netgear DG834GT 7. Where are you trying to connect from (house, appartment complex, school, student accomodation, work, etc.)? Home 8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? (Go to LW's menu Help>About LW...) Will show both LW & Java version. 4.12.06 & java 1.6.0_01 9. Who is your ISP provider (Internet Service Provider)? tiscali 10. Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ The page should say 'Your test worked!'. What happens when you go there? - 'Your test worked!' 11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up. No & Azereus works fine thro router after I opened port 12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. This is a new problem with router or ISP from a once reg user 13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? Yes http://www.gnutellaforums.com/attach...1&d=1158099342 14. For those using a modem/router, how is your modem/router set up...are you port forwarding or is UPnP enabled? Router is set as default. I have tried PnP & manual with no success. Port is open for TCP/UDP ![]() |
