[marczac]

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 said "Your test 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. I've been using LW for years.
13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? Yes- tried listing as exeption, adding ports, removed the virus software (it was outdated anyway...) Nothing is working. The computer I'm using is wired to the modem...however I also have a wireless router connected to this computer ...Lynksis...I couldn't find a firewall program on the Lynksis router to make LW an exeption...

14. For those using a modem/router, how is your modem/router set up...are you port forwarding or is UPnP enabled? No clue.
15. What security programs are you using (antivirus etc)? Some people might not be aware that their security suite includes a firewall Just removed all...will set up new one later...just trying to get LW to work right now
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). Live in the US.

Any help is appreciated...been trying to solve this for weeks...uninstalled and installed LW several times seeing if I was missing the check box that asks to make LW an exception to firewalls...This was never an option.

I'm lost...
