These volunteers keep the board organized and moving. Moderators are authorized to: (in order of increasing severity) Move posts to the correct forums. Many times, members post in the wrong forum. These off-topic posts may impede the normal operation of the forum. Edit posts. Moderators will edit posts that are offensive or break any of the House Rules. Delete posts. Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted. Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender. Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration. The Rules 1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form. Topics discussing techniques for violating these laws and messages containing locations of web sites or other servers hosting illegal content will be silently removed. Multiple offenses will result in consequences. File names are not required to discuss your issues. If filenames are copyright then do not belong on these forums & will be edited out or post removed. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement. 2. Spamming and excessive advertising will not be tolerated.

There will be no racial, ethnic, or gender based insults, or any other personal attacks. 5. Pictures may be attached to posts and signatures if they are not sexually explicit or offensive. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement. 6. Remember to post in the correct forum. Take your time to look at other threads and see where your post will go. If your post is placed in the wrong forum it will be moved by a moderator. There are specific Gnutella Client sections for LimeWire, Phex, FrostWire, BearShare, Gnucleus, Morpheus, and many more. Please choose the correct section for your problem. 7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required. 8. Any impersonation of a forum member in any mode of communication is strictly prohibited and will result in banning. 9. Multiple copies of the same post will not be tolerated. Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. Keep in mind a forum censor may temporarily automatically hold up your post, if you do not see your post, do not post again, it will be dealt with by a moderator within a reasonable time. Authors of multiple copies of same post may be dealt with by moderators within their discrete judgment at the time which may result in warning or infraction points, depending on severity as adjudged by the moderators online. 10. Posts should have descriptive topics. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents. 11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. Reiterating, do not post your email address in posts. This is for your own protection. 12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit or used for commercial advertising. Commercial weblinks cannot be used under any circumstances and will result in an immediate ban. 13. Dual accounts are not allowed. Cannot explain this more simply. Attempts to set up dual accounts will most likely result in a banning of all forum accounts. 14. Video links may only be posted after you have a tally of two forum posts. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. 15. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues. Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis. Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community. |

 No Ethernet Hits??? Just a quick message.....Just wondering why i don't get any Ethernet hits for my searches? (used to when I had Bell Sympatico High speed [ISP], in fact never had any DL issues with Bell, when using LW or any other Gnutella client) I have the option set for all speeds or whatever....4-5 stars.....blah blah blah. Everyone else I know gets the except me, is this a problem on my end? Also My LW DL's are still crap, incase anyone was paying attention....lol. I have tried Everything possible, and i do mean everything from port #'s to every option that i could possibly try in LW, with all of your help, and yet its still crap. I guess you can add SOURCE CABLE to the ISP's that use bandwidth shaping. One thing puzzles me......I have Norton IS 05, and have allowed LW firewall access. Yet that %^&*ing icon (Enabled Firewall) is always there. And when I try to direct connect it too says that I have a Firewall enabled. My only Firewall is from Norton IS 05. Since I use Win 98. I used to have a program called Freedom, but is was erased from my HD long ago, could something like this or similar be blocking me, or is it my Fantastic ISP (after all the do advertise the fastest Internet in Southern Ontario, hmmmmmm wonder why?????) Anyway enough, talk from me and thanx for listening. Scotty  |

 Yes I do have a Router....but im not familiar with exactly how it works or how to get it to work with my LW. Guess that would affect Ethernet hits? Actually i use a D-Link DVG-1120 it is a for a VOIP phone. If you know of anyway i can configure it i would be all ears. Thanks Grandpa Maybe i will try my cable modem without the router and see what happens. |

| Your router does have a NAT firewall in it the link below wil take you to the page to set up port forward. It does not look like it supports UPnP but I don't know. Make sure you follow all of the instructions. http://www.portforward.com/english/r...M/Limewire.htm

| I have tried this before but i think i may have flubbed a step up..... I get to the part about editing 'local configuration network' but there is no number for the last set of numbers for IP SERVER.....what should this number be. It has to be a number because i cannot leave it blank. I got to this point before and i put a 10 in the blank ie: 192.168.0.10....this made no difference.......not sure if this is even close. heres the part im talking about.... Index 1 Protocol TCP Global Port 6346 Local Port 6346 Server IP 192.168.0. xxx State enabled We will list a series of lines here that will show you exactly how to forward the ports you need to forward. Limewire requires you to forward the 6346 ports. Go ahead and enter the settings shown above into the Local Server Configuration menu. Click the Save button at the bottom of this page to save your changes. Index 2 Protocol UDP Global Port 6346 Local Port 6346 Server IP 192.168.0.xxxx State sorry grandpa, and thx for the help....hope i make some sense.....  |

| Make a long story short The part on the Port Forwarding Webpage where it says don't skip this step.......i skipped. Don't know how to setup a ststic ip address, which is what i assume i input into my router settings... |

| I just did this.... Is my static IP, the IP address I got when i ran the config/all command? If it isn't it doesn't explain how you get a static IP address. ANyway I took the IP Address from the config/all command and used it in both the TCP and UDP indexes in my router setup. LW still DLing about 2-10KB. im pretty sure i did it right. the TCP/ICP is the one for my modem right? I had a choice of 4 and picked that one. then followed all of the steps you have outlined. the others are... 1) Network telesystemP.P.P............ 2) Realtek familty fast ethernet..... ....not exactly as shown.......the other is a dialup which im sure it isn't. I have done all of the steps....one NEW thing Im NOT getting the firewall icon displayed, and it doesn't say that im behind a firewall anymore.....that must be good!!!! Must be doin something right... thanx a million. Last edited by hushtool; January 2nd, 2006 at 07:29 PM. |
