Default I just download Frostwire having problems with connections

I just download Frostwire and all I get is 3 ultrapeer connections. Is this normal? Because I could get up to 5 on Limewire>

You'll get 3 ultrapeer connections with FW

LW basic also connects to 3 ultrapeers, you'll only see 5 if you're using LW Pro

It's probably related to a firewall problem. Firewall instructions are the same as those for LimeWire.
See sections about 1. Software firewalls, 2. Modem/Router NAT firewalls & enabling UPnP to overcome it, 3. Forwarding a port if your device doesn't support UPnP; Connection problems? Check here first! (click on link)

After finally getting Frostwire to load on my computer, it says " Starting Connections" in the lower left corner and after toggling connect a million times it still says trying to connect. I'm connected to the internet obviously or I couldnt post this.

I notice you're having the same problems with LimeWire. Do you think it might be ISP related? They may have started filtering p2p programs. Can you answer the questions in this thread: Connection problems? Check here first! (click on link)

tinacee1 you already posted lol If you want to start a new thread, then go to the section where your topic belongs & press the New Thread button at the top left. You posted here in FrostWire section so I guess you're using FrostWire (FW).

I have been using Frostwire right along - downloaded stuff all night long, and today all it says is starting connection. I even reloaded Frostwire. I even reloaded windows. I do have the PnP (or whatever) clicked.

What do I try next?
