Default Can't Connect to any connections

When I start LWP, I click on connections, and it's blank, I found this out because, every time I search, I get no results at all. Heres a screen shot.
Is there a way to fix this?

Stop posting all over the forum in different threads

I asked you for your details. Where are they? You think I can work out what model of router you have by reading your mind??


Answer the questions that you've been asked, or nobody can help you. Post again into another thread & your post will be deleted.

Hey,

This is what my LW looks like also, it is blank when I try and search with only 1 bar at bottom of screen and brick wall. I am running off a Mac OSX 10.4.10 & Java 1.5.0 (should this be updated)?

Any help

Shindees
