14. For those using a modem/router, how is your modem/router set up...are you port forwarding or is UPnP enabled?I do not know

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).I am living in USA

Your Router has a Nat Firewall within and if it is set to UPnP and it doesn't allow the limewire connection, it's best to port forward...;)

These are your instructions...
Port Forwarding for the Airlink 101 AR315W

That did not help sorry to say. I am soooo frustrated. Please help=(

Did you successfully do the staitic IP part ??
What Port number did you use ??
Did you enter only that port number into the TCP and UDP boxes ??
Did you also enter that port into the manual port forward and the listen port options in limewire and select apply ??
