HELP!!!!! It worked a few months ago with just the basic version. I payed for a whole year subscription and now I get the "Firewall Detected" and I've disabled the Windows Firewall and I even disabled the Symantec Antivirus software and still the LW will not connect!

All help is appreciated!

Hope that helps.

Configure Norton to allow LW full access; Configuring Norton Internet Security. Also try these options: If LW Will Not Connect (click on the blue link)
Which Linksys model is it?
