 What's happening? Are you able to open LW? Are you able to connect? DSL means you're connecting thru a different type of modem. Most dsl modems have internal NAT firewalls. The question is what brand & model is yours & is this a problem for you. 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. If you can open LW & connect, after 15+ mins do this test: Bug Report instructions & sample image Is the result True/False? |

| See Connection problems? Check here first! If you have xp, then xp has its own firewall. |
