I've had issues connecting (only one bar, not enough to search) for the last several days. I've followed all the directions in the stickies at the top of this board, my java is recently updated, I've uninstalled and re-installed. I've even gone as far as to uninstall SP2 (no flaming please), and had no luck with any of this tips.

Details:
1. OS version? WindowsXP
2. What firewalls you have? whatever windows provides
3. How much ram? Please excuse me as I don't quite understand all this type of stuff. From the label on the front of the computer: 256 MB DDR SDRAM memory, 60 GB Ultra DMA hardrive
4. Hard Disk space available? 14.9 GB and 11.6 GB
5. Connection type? cable
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? Belkin Wireless G
7. Where are you trying to connect from? home
8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? LW: 4.12.16 Java: 1.6.0_03
9. Who is your ISP? Atlantic 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? Test worked.
11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up. Wireless router, my husband connects in the evenings
12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. I've had LW for a long time (2 years?) this is a new issue.
13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? Yep
14. For those using a modem/router, how is your modem/router set up...are you port forwarding or is UPnP enabled? I've tried both, default is port forwarding
15. What security programs are you using (antivirus etc)? AVG free
16. What country are you living in? USA


I hope I've answered these questions correctly. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
