Webstar Cable Modem - Port Forwarding - LimeWire Hi there; My name is JDavid and I just recently updated my DSL connection to Cable broadband. It seems that I made a huge mistake, (even though you can save me by giving me some pointers). I used to have my DSL for many years with one of the biggest Telephone Solutions Providers in Puerto Rico. I am now subscribed to one of the main Cable ISPs supporting the metro area at Puerto Rico. My Cable ISP is called "Powerlink" from the company called Onelink Communications, located in Puerto Rico. I just learned that my Cable ISP is controlling the way my broadband is delivered. I say this because ever since I changed to Internet cable, I haven't been able to download files through LimeWire or any other "P2P", or "Gnutella" network as before. My LimeWire download speed is extremely slow. I was told by my Cable ISP's Customer Service that they do not allow or support these types of connections and softwares because it implies "Cpyright Laws". I undertand this, but I think they should leave this issue to the "end user". Why the **** they have to decide it for me!!! It SUCKS!!!! Well, I have already tried entering into my cable modem WebStar DPC2100R2 but my ISP has a forced "firmware" that won't allow me to do any changes. I also tried to configured a "Static IP address" and "Port Forwarding" on my Linksys Router, but it didn't correct the LimeWire issue. Any help would be appreciated. Here's the technical info from my current hardware: - OS: Win XP SP2 - CPU: 3.0ghz - RAM: 2GB - H.D.: 80gb - Cable Modem: Scientific-Atlanta WebSTAR-DPR2100R2 - Router: Linksys Wireless G (Model: WRT54GS) - Scenario: I have the Cable Modem connected to the Internet port of the Linksys Router. The computer is connected to my Linksys Router. |
