Who is your ISP - BT 2MB Broadband 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 fine 11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up. My laptop is wireless, along with another hard wired computer to the router. 12.

For those using a modem/router, how is your modem/router set up...are you port forwarding or is UPnP enabled? I have tried both & still no luck. 15. What security programs are you using (antivirus etc)? Some people might not be aware that their security suite includes a firewall  - PC Cillin Trend Micro.16. What country are you living in? Sometimes there are ISPs with the same name in more than one country (eg Clearwire in the USA & also in Ireland). United Kingdom Thanks in advance!

| Try Port Forwarding again and also have a look at these instructions for your Trend, just to make sure you have it configured correctly...  Port Forwarding for the BT Home Hub Port Forwarding for the Trend Micro PC-cillin Internet Security It could also have something to do with your ISP...
