![]() A few weeks ago, my Limewire just stopped connecting. I can open the program fine, but now it doesn't connect anymore. It just sits there and does nothing. I tried downloading a newer version of Limewire (4.0), but it just won't connect. Help! Below is my info. 1. OS version? (eg: Windows 98) Mac OS 8.6 2. What firewalls you have? None 3. How much ram? 192 MB (I think) 4. Hard Disk space available? 2 Gig 5. Connection type? (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.) 56k modem dialup 6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? Not sure 7. Where are you trying to connect from (house, appartment complex, school, student accomodation, work, etc.)? Apartment 8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? (Go to LW's menu Help>About LW...) Will show both LW & Java version. 4.0 9. Who is your ISP (Internet Service Provider)? Local service 10. Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ The page should say 'Your test worked!'. What happens when you go there? It worked! 11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up. No 12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. New problem 13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? No 14. For those using a modem/router, how is your modem/router set up...are you port forwarding or is UPnP enabled? Not sure 15. What security programs are you using (antivirus etc)? None 16. What country are you living in? Sometimes there are ISPs with the same name in more than one country (eg Clearwire in the USA & also in Ireland). USA! |
