Model number? Were there reports or info about certain Hubs having bugs that effect only specific software?

Model: EFAH05W
1 gig of ram
Just the firewall windows came with (ive disabled it)
about 60G free space (defragged bout every 4 months)
Connection is a strong 512k cable
connecting from a house in the suberbs (word up)
my isp is Wideopenwest.com
I passed the test
I share my internet connection with 1 other computer (both are connected to a hub-->Cable modem--->Lines outside the house
1st time i ever tried to run Limewire
I have not seen that on the interface (blue world)

I appologize in advance if this sounds rude because im not trying to be.

I have read over the Tech page that you provided on the sticky. As I read on clicking on Sub link after sub link, I realized how specific this page really was. I ask myself: If the problem is -=THIS=- detailed maybe its not my comp (I have tried running this on a similar specced comp w/same network setup/OS ect..) but rather its the software itself.

Could you give me just the general "things to try first"? I consider myself and avid computer user as ive made a few web pages and edited a few games, but ive never heard of this "port fowarding" Well i assume it doesn't apply to me as it only talks about "ROUTERS" with this issue.

(Try not to get mad here) If Limewire poses this much trouble just to connect, why use it? Im sure some of you run it no prob.

Perhaps there is a supernode function to click?

Lol maybe i should have mentiond this before but the version of Limewire im running is 4.0.8
Any bugs about that I should know? Upgrade?
