![]() I have been reading posts and trying to get my Limewire connected for 4 hours now. I read a post that said: .................................................. ....................................... Did you configure your firewall so it allows LW full access (advisable not to have 2 active firewalls b/c they can interfere with each other); Firewall configuration instructions (click on link) Can you give us a total desciption of your set up: 1. OS version? (eg: Windows 98) 2. What firewalls you have? 3. How much ram? 4. Hard Disk space available? 5. Connection type? (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.) 6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? 7. Where are you trying to connect from (home, school, work, etc.)? 8. What version of Limewire (LW) & Java do you have? (Go to LW's menu Help>About LW...) Will show both LW & Java version. 9. Who is your isp provider (Internet Service Provider)? 10. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up. 11. Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ The page should say 'Your test worked!'. What happens when you go there? 12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. These details are vital if you want us to find out what your connection problem is.) .................................................. ........................................... 1) XP home 2)Sp2 firewall disabled Mcafee firewall with limewire added as an exception 3)1GB 4)50GB 5)cable 6)moto surfboard w/netgear WRG614v5 UPnP enabled 7)home 8)LW 4.10 java 1.5.0_06 9)local cable company 10)basic home network to share connection 4 computers 11) TEST shows page cannot be displayed!! 12)I have had LW for years I just moved and I'm trying it for the first time here |
