here's the latest,
verified UPnP[XP ICF, network connection, DI 524 router]
rebooted router and DSL modem
verified Java install per test on Sun website
uninstalled LW
LW reinstall: online installer would not connect
DLoaded full package install
still get msg: no internet connection firewall/pc loop
per LW website I tried configure ports on my IFC wireless but website sez to open LW and ck for listening port so since I can't open LW I just guessed and used 15258 for UDP/TCP but still no luck.
internet works fine tho and I've never had a pop up saying XP IFC was blocking anything.
Do I have my network connections set wrong?
should I reinstall Java even tho test sez OK? thanks in advance :-)
