Only connects at a certain time in the day!

i have realised that my limewire only connects at a certain time in the day for example i cannot connect in the morning or evening when i look at the connections it says time until connection and it counts down to 1 and doesnt connect. But it is strange as this does not happen at night. can someone help me? most appreciated

Hey Kosnowman, Sounds like your ISP may be Throddling your Bandwith. See This.

perfect thanks but im a REAL rookie when it comes to these things so how do i allow limewire to use my ports that are open???

I've never had to do this so all I can tell you is how to get to where you need to go.
While in Limewire go to Tools > Options > Advanced > Firewall Config. > Listening Port. Change, click apply and ok. You might make note of the Port # before you change it, just incase you need to change it back. Hope this helps.
It might be a little different depending on what version you have
