(If you don't have a Connections tab, do View:Connections.) Upon starting LimeWire, wait until the connections reach a fairly stable state, with only active connections shown, no "Connecting..." attempts. Then, select the number of connections from the text box, retype the same number in its place, and wait for a stable state again.
When LimeWire starts, it won't open the maximum number of connections that you have told it to keep. By selecting and reentering the number, you force LimeWire to attempt to open the maximum number of connections.
