connection, etc problems
 

I have a macintosh G3 laptop. I am using limewire classic and it will not connect to any hosts. I press connect and I won't get any search results because Im not connected to any hosts. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling it, and it doesn't work. Please help.

what is between your machine and the internet (modem, router . . . ), and which classic installer did you use?

Im having the exact same problem!

I cannot connect limewire but installing worked out fine.
I have a Mac OS Classic 9.2 with a router and ADSL broadband.

When i push connect it wont work, therfore i cannot connect to and hosts..
:confused:
Please help me i would be delighted!!

-LimeWire user in need! :D

Glad to help another user, but yours is a really tough problem to solve (because the problem may be upstream of your router, and thus out of your hands).

First, to see if it's the router, try connecting directly to the internet (plug the asdl modem directly into your computer, and try your mail or web browser to confirm connection. If they don't, you'll have to set new TCP/IP control panel settings.

Post back and we can try from there.

Tryed and it worked all fine..

Maybe a firewall or something?

Good. Did you try Limewire too?

Yup, but LimeWire dident connect, when i push connect it 'dots' green just to turn red again, as before.. But internet and mail are working all the time.

Ouch--that means the problem is either in your set-up or upstream. The router would have been an easier problem to solve.

OK, back to basics: does your ISP allow connections to the gnutella network on port 6346?

If not, you're out of luck until they do or you can change ISP's.

What do you mean? Whats ISP? My IP adress?

Your Internet Service Provider--the one you pay so they will allow you to connect to the internet.
