Can't connect with my stationary
 
I have a wierd problem. I can't connect to Limewire through my stationary pc all of a sudden. I can connect with my laptop though.. I haven't done any changes to my firewall.

Anyways, here's my info:

1. OS version? Vista
2. What firewalls you have? Windows firewall
3. How much ram? 2GB
4. Hard Disk space available? 200GB ++
5. Connection type? cable
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? Linksys Wireless-G Broadband Router WRT54G
7. Where are you trying to connect from: Home
8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? LW 4.16.6, Java 1.6.0_05
9. Who is your ISP (Internet Service Provider)? Canal Digital
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? "Your test worked"
11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? Yes, my laptop (wireless)
12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user? New problem with an experienced user.
13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? Yes

Hi and welcome !

Main question...

Have you recently 'updated' and/or 'clean installed' LimeWire ?

filiokus April 15th, 2008 03:01 PM

Both. I updated, uninstalled, and reinstalled Limewire.

Ok, this is really frustrating. Now I am connected again. It seems that it takes a good while before it connects. Any idea what could cause the delay?

Tanks so much for your help, and sorry about the "back and forth"-thing here.. ^^

OK

And as far as the 'back and forthing goes', we have just begun !!! LOL
Have a look at this > If LimeWire Will Not Load
which you'll find in my signature in the above post.
Might as well have a look at some of the others above it in the LimeWire group.

Be sure to come back either before you try out the 'fixes' or for sure after !
