Default LimeWire tells me it is connecting to the network but I can't connect

I have 4 brown connectivity bars - not green or blue. Used to be able to connect with no problems. Vaguely remember a JAVA upgrade a week or two ago. Any way to check?

1. OS version? XP SP 2
2. What firewalls do you have? Both McAfee and Windows XP
3. How much ram? 1.0 GB
4. Hard Disk space available? 56%
5. Connection type? Comcast Cable
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? Linksys WRT54G router
7. Where are you trying to connect from? house
8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? LW 4.12.14
9. Who is your ISP (Internet Service Provider)? Comcast
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? It worked
11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up. NO
12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. New prob - experienced user
13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? YES

14. For those using a modem/router, how is your modem/router set up...are you port forwarding or is UPnP enabled? UPnP enabled
15. What security programs are you using (antivirus etc)? Some people might not be aware that their security suite includes a firewall McAfee Firewall enabled
16. What country are you living in? Sometimes there are ISPs with the same name in more than one country. USA
