I've tried it all - Please help! (Cannot connect)

3. How much ram? 1gb
4. Hard Disk space available? 160 gb
5. Connection type? (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.) cable
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? Dlink WBR-2310
7. Where are you trying to connect from (house, appartment complex, school, student accomodation, work, etc.)? House
8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? (Go to LW's menu Help>About LW...) Will show both LW & Java version. 4.14.8, J2SE 5.0 Update 11
9. Who is your ISP (Internet Service Provider)? Mediacom
10. Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ The page should say 'Your test worked!'. What happens when you go there? "Your test worked!!"
11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up. No

14. For those using a modem/router, how is your modem/router set up...are you port forwarding or is UPnP enabled? Have done port forwording according to link here. UPnP is also enabled.
15. What security programs are you using (antivirus etc)? Some people might not be aware that their security suite includes a firewall http://www.gnutellaforums.com/connec...lies/smile.gifMacafee, uninstalled Firewall, and a couple other pieces according to directions here.
16. What country are you living in? Sometimes there are ISPs with the same name in more than one country (eg Clearwire in the USA & also in Ireland). US

I've tried everything posted here. Uninstalling, erasing Prefs folder, etc. Mediacom does not block P2P, it worked before the new router. Tried installing on an XP computer with the same problem. Same problems whether wireless or LAN connected.:( Don't know what else to do! Any suggestions?

Have you tried portforwarding your router. See Link Below.

Port Forwarding for the Dlink WBR-2310

Yes I followed the directions at portforward.com for my router. Still no luck. It happens with Frostfire too, so I'm almost certain it's a router problem. In the router options, if I am port forwarding for limewire, I can still check UnP for auto detecting other programs, can't I?
Thanks.
