My Limewire Is "Broken" HELP!!!

Can anyone tell me why every time i start limewire it screws up my DSL connection and i can't do ANYTHING online til' i unplug my modem & plug it back in

Are you using a router

No, no router.....unless my DSL Modem is a router

Well Psycho

With the little info you have supplied I would guess that your modem is on the way out, you probably (near) killed it.

You probably "axe murdered" it or worked it to near death, take your pick.

Seriously though, how old is your modem?




UK Bob

are u using xfire at all?

i noticed alot that xfire can disconnect me from the internet (dosent have to be xfire :P)

so repair ur connection

control panel>network connections>(connection name)>support

then press repair

hope this works

I'm not using xfire (never heard of it)

and "repair" is always the first thing i try when i get knocked offline...but it never works, even before i started having the limewire problem whenever i click "repair" it always says cannot clear ARP Cache...that started after i installed the latest msn messenger...
also i recently downloaded morpheus...and it does the same thing limewire does....but imesh, winmx, and warez p2p...don't give me any problems

my modem is the Actiontec (Wireless Ready) DSL Gateway
about a about a year old, maybe 2
