problems connecting and firewall
 

hi and thanx in advance for to anyone who can help me
:confused:

first i'll tell you my set up-
windows xp pro sp2
limewire 4.10.09 pro
isp cablevision
router linksys 54wrg v5
nvidia 6800ultra graphics card
700 gig of memory
amd atholon fx-53 processor running at 2.4
2 gigs of ram

i think i have done everything i can to fix the problem with no success i have port forwarded my router changed the listening port accepted limewire as an application open up ports for 6346 under the tcp and the udp and i still can't can't get rid of that brick wall in lime wire and i still can't connect if anyone can help me out i would really apreciate it and if you have any question let me know

I can see 3 potential problems! The 1st is Cablevision who is actually better known here as Optimum. See 1. All Nyc Limewire Users With Optimum!, & then also 2. Its Optimum Online ......, & then 3. Optonline and LImewire, & then 4. MY ongoing conversation with Optimum Online, & then lastly 5. please help me get rid of my firewall problem..

There's more references around the forums but these were the easiest & prolly best to see.:rolleyes:

The 2nd problem I can see is your linksys 54wrg which are known to have firmware problems. Some of these work unreliably whether in UPnP mode & at the very worst port forwarding ... This issue & answer ... Oh but then again you have the wrg not wrt ... might not be as bad.

thanx i'll check those out
