Default Connection difficulties, tried everything. Not on Insight.

Alright. Before you ream this little n00b, know that I have read pretty much EVERY forum in this place, and have tried everything.

So. I have a Mac, Limewire, and a college connection. I just moved in about a month ago, and Limewire hasn't worked ONCE for me yet. When I was at home, it worked like a charm. Now I have to deal with a router (Cisco uBR942) and a university internect connection. It says I have a firewall, but everytime I force a proxy and a new port, it still says the same thing. I've tried about a dozen different ports (even port 80) and still no luck. All the "Check Your Ports" don't work for me.

Also, I've tried setting up a static IP, incase it's not the school's ISP that's blocking the port and it's the router I've got my ethernet hooked up to. But I can't find directions on how to do it on a Mac.

In addition, a friend of mine in my dorm has a different p2p program, and she can download things. I can download pages, things I find on the internet, widgets, all of it. So maybe it's not that the school's restricting bandwith?

Anyone care to help?
