THERES ABOUT 1,000-10,000 POSTS ON HERE ABOUT CONNECTION PROBLEMS AND/OR SOLUTIONS TO HAVING CONNECTION PROBLEMS. I FOR ONE HAVE READ A LOT OF THESE POSTS AS WELL AS TRY ALMOST EVERYTHING... THIS INCLUDES THE PORT TESTS AND SHOWED NOTHING WAS BLOCKED, I'VE TRIED DELETING THE .LIMEWIRE FOLDER TO NO HELP, UNINSTALL/RE-INSTALL LIMEWIRE, FORCE IP, ETC ETC ETC AND NOTHING EVER WORKED!!!!!!!!!!!! JUST GO AHEAD AND DELETE ALL OF THOSE POSTS RIGHT NOW B/C THEY ARE USELESS!!!!!!! BUT JUST NOW WHILE DOING A LITTLE MESSING AROUND ON LIMEWIRE I FINALLY FOUND A SOLUTION SO READ THIS POST AND DELETE ALL THE OTHER NON-SENSE ONES THAT DONT WORK. OK, HERE ARE MY STEPS ON WHAT I DID TO MAKE LIMEWIRE WORK... **NOTE** THIS WONT NECESSARILY WORK IN OTHER PROGRAMS CUZ SOME DONT HAVE THE OPTIONS NEEDED. OK HERE ARE THE STEPS
1.) GO TO TOOLS>OPTIONS>ADVANCED>PORT AND MAKE SURE THE BOX SAYS 6346
2.) GO TO TOOLS>OPTIONS>ADVANCED>FIREWALLS AND CHECKMARK THE FORCE IP BOX AND MAKE SURE THIS ALSO SAYS PORT 6346
3.) GO TO TOOLS>OPTIONS>ADVANCED>PROXY AND CONFIGURE A PROXY THAT WORKS. THERE ARE TONS OF PROXY SITES OUT THERE JUST YAHOO SEARCH 'PROXY LISTS'
IN MY CASE I USED A SOCKS V5 PROXY THAT I FOUND TO BE WORKING SO HERE IS AN EX. OF HOW I IMPLEMENTED THE OPTIONS.
4.) CHECK THE SOCKS V5 BOX AND IN THE PROXY WINDOW I PUT 69.240.156.39 AND IN THE PORT BOX I PUT 3380
****NOTE**** PROXIES CAN WORK FOR 2YEARS-2DAYS-1HR-5MIN SO 1ST RUN A CHECK TO MAKE SURE THE PROXY U WANNA USE WORKS FOR THE TIME BEING YOU WILL ONLY NEED A WORKING PROXY FOR LIKE 5MINUTES WHILE YOU DO A CONNECT TO THE NETWORK
5.) CLICK APPLY AND THEN OK
6.) HIT FILE>DISCONNECT
7.) HIT FILE>CONNECT ... IF U DIDNT CHECK TO MAKE SURE THE PROXY WORKED THAT YOU ARE TRYING U WILL NOW FIND OUT IF IT WORKS OR NOT CUZ IF SO THE NETWORK WILL NOW CONNECT!!!
8.) ONCE CONNECTED, JUST DO A RANDOM SEARCH LIKE '50 CENT' OR WHATEVER IT IS YOU MIGHT WANNA TRY BUT JUST MAKE SURE WHATEVER YOU SEARCH WILL BRING UP A LOT OF RESULTS BECAUSE IF DONE CORRECTLY YOU SHOULD NOW SEE RESULTS POPPING UP
9.) IF INSTEAD OF ALWAYS BRINGING UP ZERO RESULTS, UR SEARCH ACTUALLY RETURNS WITH SOME RESULTS YOU ARE NOW PROPERLY CONNECTED!!!!
**NOTE** ONLY DO THESE NEXT STEPS IF U PLAN ON KEEPING LIMEWIRE UP FOR A VERY LONG TIME **RECOMMENDED**, THUS U WONT HAVE TO CONNECT BACK TO THE NETWORK FOR A WHILE CUZ EVERYTIME U CLOSE OUT LW AND START IT BACK UP OR DISCONNECT AND RECONNECT BACK TO THE NETWORK U WILL HAVE TO DO STEPS 1-9 EVERYTIME WHICH I KNOW IS A HASSLE BUT IT'S BETTER THAN NOT BEING ABLE TO GET ANY FILES AT ALL.
10.) GO BACK TO TOOLS>OPTIONS>ADVANCED>FIREWALLS AND UNCHECK THE FORCE IP BOX
11.) GO TO TOOLS>OPTIONS>ADVANCED>PROXY AND CLICK THE NO PROXY BUTTON
12.) CLICK APPLY THEN OK
13.) ALL DONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In reply:
Been on the network awhile now and still get upld request from comcast,shawcable,setarsdsl,telus.net at this minute but have not noticed the block at all. Been offline for a few days though no one is really using the network that much on the weekends its during the week that everyone is home. I have had record downloads of about 1000 requests for one particular download that is popular now in one evening. So, if the RIAA wants to pick on all of us then that even though the stuff is copyrighted don't mean nothing. How many times have you duped your own private suff for a personal friend because they don't have it in the their collection? Its all bout control people -- they want our souls and the rich rappers who look ugly, no teeth, really can't dance or play the part of a gigilo need to step down. Oh did I mention CAN'T SING/TALK either -- its sad how the record companies take advantage of young no talent and exploit them if your not playing basketball or football first. I'm done.  |
