firewall/router problems ? - LimeWire stalls my internet connection

[wilsonli]

All right, I've posted on here once looking for answers and didn't find them. I'll try to be a little more specific this time. I am running OS X.3 latest version. I have downloaded twice from Limewire, but now when I try to download it stalls my whole internet connection. I have to restart my router to get my internet connection back. Limewire claims I am behind a firewall, but I have checked the system prefs and the little box by the limewire/gnutella firewall is checked in my sharing prefs. I am running my internet connection through a router like I said before, but I can't adjust any settings with the router as far as a firewall goes. The same router used to let me do this before so what's the problem?? Someone please help! It worked when I first got Panther and now it doesn't work at all!!!

see http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...6565#post86565 for good links.

btw--if you are still behind that Belkin router at home, you can turn your Panther firewall off.

If you want it to work as before, plug the cableconnection directly into your computer and bypass the router.
