rebepa3 is flying high
Default another specific connection problem

As many before me my Limewire states that I am behind a firewall..... I have done the following:
1) went to the start button
2) Went to settings ---> control panel
3) To internect connnections.
4) Right clicked on my internet connections ----> to "Properties"
5) Clicked the tab that says "sharing"
6) Checked the box that says Enable internet connection sharing for this connection.
7) *** PROBLEM OCCURS HERE ****
Problem A) I would like to choose Local Area Connection 2 because that is my connection. However, it only gives me the two the choose from "Local Area connection" and "Local Area connection 3" (which is my Blue toothe connection).

Problem B) If I choose "Local Area Connection" I get the following.... "A unexpected condition occured. Not all of your requested changes could be made." So I 'X' that out and get,

"An error occured.... Internet connection sharing cannot be enabled. THe LAN connection Seclected as the private network is either not present or is disconnected fromt he network. Please ensure that the LAN adapter is connected before enabling internet connection sharing."

If I choose "Local Area Connection 3" Everything goes ok - but still no changes in my Lime wire.....

What should my remote server port # be..... What should my Incoming response ports be?

I am using Microsoft 98... I am using a blekin wire less card, and a router that is connected to a mac. Please look at my profile for the numbers for the wireless card and router.

Ugh. I have spent $45.00 dollars on Lime wire. Thus far I have spent a handful of hours attempting to place my $45.00 to work. Right now it has been a WASTE of cash. PLEASE HELP. Its getting rediculous.

Please instruct me like a 5 year old is using the computer. I do not like what a static IP address is... I NEED STEP BY STEP DIRECTIONS ON HOW TO FIX THIS!
Thanks
Becky
