Direct Connection Firewalled Limewire 4.10.3
Windows XP Home
Norton Antivirus 2005
I have tried every post to correct the inability to make a direct connection. Limewire keeps telling me I'm behind a firewall or router. ( I have a direct Cable connection and I have tried every thing I can read or think about. I've disabled everything, changed settings in network as other posts instructed but still limewire says I am behind a firewall.
My connection works fine and is very stable. I can download from multiple peers and can search and receive many files.
I noticed this seems to be a big problem for ther people who cannot seem to get this firewall for direct connect to go away so wwe can connect directly to a friend.
I like Limewire and would consider the Pro version but Not if the direct connect can't be used or configured easily or with a set of instructions on the site from limewire on how to solve this.
I'm baffled and would appreciate anyones insight who has battled and solved this issue or is it just a fact of life that direct connect sucks and never really works?
Thanks |
