connection drops when opening Limewire Hi, my internet is connected wirelessley and works fine, but as soon as i open Limewire, the connection drops. The connection eventually restores itself but then drops again. Any ideas? 1. OS version? Windows XP Professional 2. What firewalls you have? standard windows firewall 3. How much ram? 512 MB 4. Hard Disk space available? 117GB 5. Connection type? 4.2MEG ADSL 6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? Belkin Wireless Router 7. Where are you trying to connect from? house 8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? 4.14.12 9. Who is your ISP? BT (united Kingdom) 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? I says ‘Your test worked’ 11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up. - Wireless connection with 2 laptops and a desktop. 12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. I’ve been using limewire for about 5 years and this started when i started using wireless connection. 13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? No 14. For those using a modem/router, how is your modem/router set up...are you port forwarding or is UPnP enabled? Not sure, 15. What security programs are you using (antivirus etc)? None 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). UK |
