 Can't Connect with LW 4.16.7 I've used limewire for years and it was working fine until I upgraded to 4.16.7. It has no brick or firewall in the way and it says Excellent Connection, but when I try to search nothing ever comes up. Please Help me!  1. OS version? Windows 98 2. What firewalls you have? MacAfee, but it tells me limewire can get through 3. How much ram? 512 MB 4. Hard Disk space available? 11.2 GB 5. Connection type? (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.) DSL 6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? 2wire Modem from AT&T 7. Where are you trying to connect from (house, appartment complex, school, student accomodation, work, etc.)?House 8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? (Go to LW's menu Help>About LW...) LW 4.16.7 & Java version 1.5.0 9. Who is your ISP (Internet Service Provider)? At&T 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? If yes, please give details of set up. NO 12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. No I have used Limewire for years, it was when I upgraded to 4.16.7 is when it stopped working. 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? I do no't understand 15. What security programs are you using (antivirus etc)? Some people might not be aware that their security suite includes a firewall MacAfee 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). USA  |
