Finding out the brand name & model number of the modem/router will help.

Another suggestion is to close LW, install FrostWire & if it connects, then close it down, re-open LW.

No we can't help much at all without these details as the forum rules specify you must include with your post *sighs* -> System details - help us to help you (click on blue link)

You wish help on this forum yet you REFUSE to read the Forum Rules ? pfft !!! As a new person signing up to these forums you will have seen links to the forum rules at least three times. And they are listed at the top of each section of the forums.

When updating to this new version it's best to delete your previous LW preferences folder.

Try deleting your LW Preferences folder whilst LW is closed; instructions here: Point #2 & 3 in Fixes for Limewire (sample image included at bottom of page.)
