Excellent, thank you. That means you will need to log into your device using your browser & make some small changes.

1. Set up a Static ip (very important - instructions in link below in #2)

2. Forward port 6346 as described here http://www.portforward.com/english/r...w/Limewire.htm

3. Within LW: Manual port forward instructions & sample image & 2 posts after that.

This should do the trick. If not, try deleting your LW Preferences folder whilst LW is closed; instructions here: Point #2 in Fixes for Limewire (sample at bottom of page.) & then repeat step #3 above. Give LW plenty of time to connect. It may take 5, 10, 20+ mins the 1st time. See how many green or blue bars you have at the bottom left of the LW interface window after this time.

BTW you shouldn't make or change proxy settings unless you have a proxy internet address. But deleting your LW prefs folder will remove this setting.
