Default Connection problems for 1 user

Hi,
We have a problem with 1 user on our home PC. 3 other users have full connectivity via limewire, all bars are green. The fourth user cannot gain access, the first bar is green, everything else is red. I have tried to answer the questions about my system in the attched document. Hope someoen can help me.

Thanks

Ian

Hi Robert, I had already been through the stickies to try ans resolve the problem. I thought I had aincluded neccessary information in the word attachment, so am unsure what else to add. Limewire is working for 3 users accounts on the PC but not for a forth, yet everyone has same acecess rights.

Thanks

ian

Make sure Vista's firewall is disabled.

Make sure both account LW's are not attempting to connect using the same port. Your router will reserve particular ports for each account & block the other account for listening from those same ports.

If LW 4 Will Not Connect (click on the blue link)

BT Home Hub Explored & make sure the firmware is up to date: BT Home Hub Unofficial F.A.Q (probably need to reboot router after update)
Then see if LW's connection improves. If not see below: (port forwarding for one user)

BT Home Hub Unofficial F.A.Q for both TCP & UDP same port range or one rule for each. Alternate instructions here under BT: PortForward.com - Free Help Setting up Your Router or Firewall
