Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up. It's a university wireless network, we all sign in with our own passwords and user names. 12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. It works on my laptop which has the same version 13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? Yes. 14.
