Default Help Me Connect!

I hate to sound like a broken record, but I can't get LW to connect. Can anyone help?

I've spent hours going throught the "look here first" posts and tried different things but ... nothing. I still can't connect.

I am using limewire 4.10.2. I use Win98SE. My ISP is a local wireless company. The modem just plugs in to my ethernet card which I installed. The card is a Linksys EtherFast 10/100 PCI Adapter ... if that means anything to anyone. The modem is a Navini Networks Ripwave-MX.

I'm fairly sure that I don't have a firewall at all. All I have in the security department is an unsupported version of Norton Anti-Virus 2001.

I believe that my ISP is blocking my ports.

Does NOT work for me.

Tools>Options>Advanced>Firewall Config
Listening Port
Router Configuration

I've tried using many other ports suggested by 'Lord of the Rings' in another thread with no success. When I did this I entered the new port number in the 'Listen on Port' field as well as in the 'Manual Port Forward' field under Router Configuration. I don't know if I did this right or not. Then I tried to re-connect with no success.

I also tried many different http proxy's with no success. I tried this both with my ports set @ 6346 and others.

Can anyone help me?!? This is total bs...i sign up for highspeed wireless for the purpose of using Limewire or others and I can't get the friggin' thing to work!
