Default Connection issue

Alright, so I am trying to connect to limewire, and I've been having this problem for a while now... It will connect like maybe, once a month, but other than that, it will only get one bar of connection and nothing else, and so I cannot do a thing with it.
There are two other computers in my house, both on wireless, that have no problem connecting.
I thought it was something with my norton, so I tried following all of the instructions for it, changing the settings by adding the rule for limewire to allow, and it still doesn't work
To rule out the norton, I tried turning it off completely to see if it was an issue, and it still did not work
Any help?
