![]() Greetings: In my attempt to use Limewire on my Insightbb cable, I am unable to do so. With both the antivirus shut down, and the firewall shut down Limewire still shows I have a firewall, and I still can get no connection. Previously, with the older version of Limewire, and on a dial-up ISP, everything worked with this same system. What next? 1. OS version? - Windows 98SE 2. What firewalls you have? - Zone Alarm (Shut off) 3. How much ram? - 256 4. Hard Disk space available? - 18.1GB 5. Connection type? - Cable 6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? Motorola Cable Modem SB5100 7. Where are you trying to connect from? - Home 8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? - Limewire 4.12.14, Java 1.5.0_06 9. Who is your ISP provider? Insightbb 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? - Test Worked 11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? - No 12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. - New problem on new ISP - Limewire used successfully previously. 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)? - : Trend PCcillin 2005 - Shut off (w/o firewall) 16. What country are you living in? - U.S. |
