These off-topic posts may impede the normal operation of the forum. Edit posts. Moderators will edit posts that are offensive or break any of the House Rules. Delete posts. Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted. Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender. Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration. The Rules 1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form. Topics discussing techniques for violating these laws and messages containing locations of web sites or other servers hosting illegal content will be silently removed. Multiple offenses will result in consequences. File names are not required to discuss your issues. If filenames are copyright then do not belong on these forums & will be edited out or post removed.

If your post is placed in the wrong forum it will be moved by a moderator. There are specific Gnutella Client sections for LimeWire, Phex, FrostWire, BearShare, Gnucleus, Morpheus, and many more. Please choose the correct section for your problem. 7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required. 8. Any impersonation of a forum member in any mode of communication is strictly prohibited and will result in banning. 9. Multiple copies of the same post will not be tolerated. Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. Keep in mind a forum censor may temporarily automatically hold up your post, if you do not see your post, do not post again, it will be dealt with by a moderator within a reasonable time. Authors of multiple copies of same post may be dealt with by moderators within their discrete judgment at the time which may result in warning or infraction points, depending on severity as adjudged by the moderators online. 10. Posts should have descriptive topics. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents. 11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. Reiterating, do not post your email address in posts. This is for your own protection. 12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit or used for commercial advertising. Commercial weblinks cannot be used under any circumstances and will result in an immediate ban. 13. Dual accounts are not allowed. Cannot explain this more simply. Attempts to set up dual accounts will most likely result in a banning of all forum accounts. 14. Video links may only be posted after you have a tally of two forum posts. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. 15. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues. Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis. Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community. |

 Router Problem? Hi, Im having a Wireless Router problem, I recently got a Router to connect me to the Internet, and Limewire wasnt working, so I decided to see how to fix it. I followed some of the Intructions on this forum and made it to this Link. http://www.portforward.com/english/r...4/Limewire.htm My Router is a D-Link G-54, but whenever I type in my IP Adress, 192.168.0.1 into my browser it comes up with a Motorola Cable Modem sign-in page. Motorola is the Broadband Modem I'm connected to, but i cant connect to my router, any ideas? (I'm in Sydney, Australia connected to Bigpond via a Motorola Modem if that helps)  |

| Hi joshthesim26, Well I've asked around and the best info I can come up with at the moment would be for you to call Bigpond and find out how to configure the modem and Router....See what they tell you...Then come back and let us know what they have said and we may be able to help you Port Forward then... Sorry I cant be more helpful at the moment...

| I am guessing your Motorola Modem is an SBG900 it is the only Motorola I can find that has the same default address as your D-Link G-54 192.168.0.1 If it is the above mentioned Modem you do not need the D-Link the Modem has a built in router in it. As far as being able to or how to access your D-Link I have no Idea of how you are going to do that. The only way I can think of is to change the default address of one or the other. But I do not know how to do that. The second link is a guide to port forwarding through 2 routers if you need it. Best I can do is say good luck for now. I will do some more investigation latter if I have time.  http://broadband.motorola.com/consum...Data_Sheet.pdf http://www.portforward.com/help/doub...forwarding.htm

| Thank you very much for your consideration and help! Yes 'Grandpa' I do have a SBG900, aswell as an SB5100 Cable Modem, both connected on another computer about 2 rooms away. And I'm picking up on the connection via a D-Link G-54. So its a bit strange to me that I'm picking up on a sign in page of a Wireless Surfboard Gateway that belongs to a computer 2 rooms away, instead of the D-Link on my own I'll try those websites and let you know if they've helped me  or if Im gonna have to keep on trying  Thanks Again! |

| Hey wondering_why Instead of contacting Bigpond I contacted my Brother-in-law, who's a computer-wiz, and asked him to help me configure this whole thing, and he's anti-limewire/kazaa, etc, etc. So I told him I was having problems with iTunes, he told me to open iTunes, it worked perfectly, and he just laughed and said problem solved  So, I'm still no-where Although he did help in some ways, he told me I didnt even have a Router, what I thought was my Router was just a Wireless card connecting me to a modem.Does this help in any way, or should I still contact Bigpond? |

| That webpage looks very promising! Thankyou, this is the Log-in page I am seeing, however my User-ID isnt admin and/or the password isn't motorola as I still can't log in. Any ideas on what to do next? Thankyou though, I think that page will help me once I can actually log-in! |

| This is just a stab in the dark, try entering 10.0.0.138 instead of 192.168.100.1.
