Based on your response to another person, I switched to MP and entered in 45000 there and on the listening port. No difference. You can check HERE, IN LimeWire Go, Tools/options/advanced/firewall Config Also remember that I am able to connect to LW 4.9 on a Mac, through the same ISP, router, modem, etc. with no problem. Since this is a recent problem (about a month), may be an update issue. Thanks for your help. |
