Did you ask Pro support about your problem? http://www.limewire.com/english/content/support.shtml

Could be your connection set up. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface?

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 description 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 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. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user.

The Billion routers are often recommended for BitTorrent, meaning that portforwarding works perfect and they don't get jammed by traffic. Try to set up portforwarding for Limewire

www.portforward.com

(don't know about their UPnP. Maybe that works too)

From the specs of yours I'd say you're in Thailand (CSLox Info, and your IP), which means you should be able to read Thai......:

TT&T has a special site explaining how to configure your router.
