![]() Hi there, I have no problem downloading and uploading... I think??? I have windows firewall turned off and my wireless router firewall turned off also but LW still shows a firewall in front of the globe... I have a linksys wrt54g wireless broadband g router... The reason I say I think I dont have any problem is I connect fine and feel I have no problems uploading and downloading... I have a Sprint dsl modem w 3000/512 capabilities... i also checked the bug report example and it shows a false on incoming session... Should I be experiencing any problems with the firewall still showing... Could this be preventing me from faster downloads and uploads... Thanx PopMal |

![]() Something is still blocking incoming: probably the router. UPnP should be turned on in the LinkSys, or else a port mapped to a static address on your computer. I hope one of the Windows users will help, because running a Windows machine without firewalls sounds very risky. |

![]() PopMal, have you tried port forwarding? http://www.portforward.com/english/r...G/Limewire.htm Don't forget to set up a static IP address. There are instructions within the link ![]() Make sure that your XP firewall is configured. As stief said, you shouldn't run without a firewall! Firewall setup Configure your firewall & then have a try with port forwarding. Let us know how it goes! |

![]() The Linksys WRT54g has some firmware issues & doesn't work well in UPnP mode. See tips about this under UPnP here Connection problems? Check here first! (click on link) |
