Wink Using LimeWire 2.5.5 and OsX 10.2

I'm using LimeWire 2.5.5 and OsX 10.2 and adding 208.239.76.100 to the Quick Connect in Preference/Connections worked for me.

If you have the latest version 2.5.5 you should never have these problems again after connecting once and cleanly shutting down after a while.

Thanks

Default can connect

Limewire is back up for me. I uninstalled Limewire 2.5.5 and then downloaded it again. I also use the address that was posted. Now I get plenty of files during a search and it has been staying up. I use a B & W G3 with Jaguar 10.2.

Default connection problems

I acquired Limewire Pro this morning and loaded it on both OSX and OS9.2 systems in my new Mac G4. I could not connect through either.

I tried the suggested fix. It worked very briefly - then stopped.

Is the problem in our software - or at Gnutella?

If you get the new client well connected once, these problems shouldn't happen again. The newer client does a great job of building up connection points on the network that will be there the next time you connect.

My backup router (pong cache) went down over night but is back up. It is not as efficient as our main one so needs some connection retries occasionally.

Thanks
