Question My LWPro or Basic will not connect... :(

I too am having Issues getting connected. I've checked the support FAQ out and followed a those steps already and still can't get connected.

1. OS version? WinXP SP2

2. What firewalls you have?I have NoD32 Total Security Admin pack Allowed LW

3. How much ram? 1024 gig ddr

4. Hard Disk space available? 50 gigs free

5. Connection type? (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.) Cable

6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? Modem= Motorola SB5100 No Nat Settings to configure, its a gateway nothing more. Linksys = BEFW11s4 with UPnP enabled, IP Pass through enabled, tried port forwarding still no luck.

7. Where are you trying to connect from (home, school, work, etc.)? Home

8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? (Go to LW's menu Help>About LW...) Will show both LW & Java version. LW4.14.10 this is a new install on home system, using same version at work no issues. =/ Java 1.6.0_3 (was using 1.5.0_11 and upgraded in hopes it would help, no such luck.)

9. Who is your ISP provider (Internet Service Provider)? Mediacom

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? My Test works! (at least something is. lol :P )

11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up. There is another computer on the router but it isn't turned on and hasn't been for several days now.

12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. I'm an experienced user with LW but this is my first install of it on this PC.

13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? I have the windows firewall disabled, and have NoD32 admin to allow LW, I've even gone as far as disabling the firewall in the admin of NoD32 and still have the stupid brick wall...

What am I forgetting?
