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.

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. |

 Uploading problems Hi, I'm the only Mac (OSX10.3.8) on a wireless network also consisting of 2 PCs (XP) and a system box (also XP) that the network uses for storage. Connected to the internet via DSL 2MB broadband, with a *new* NAT router. I'm the only Limewire user (Pro 4.6.0). I don't use the firewall on my Mac. I seem to be struggling with "need more sources" messages. Also, I've noticed that many of the uploads from my files seem to fail (about 70%). I've done some research here, but am uncertain what is wrong. The NAT router seems suspect, although it supports UPnP, I've also configured the port (6346) in L/W manually, but this has made no difference. I did the Bug Report and Received Incoming This Session is False which suggests a firewall problem - router??? I've done the test to make sure my ISP isn't blocking anything, and that was also okay. Any suggestions welcome or a pointer in the direction of where I can do some reading to learn to solve my own problem. Don't mean to be lazy....I have tried. Cheers!  |

| Thanks :-) "The test page was a success"...presumably this means the port isn't blocked by my router? Yet the Bug Report in L/W prefs is still showing "false." Off to do some more reading on the subject, but any pointers in the right direction appreciated. |

| LW's firewall setting for a UPnP capable nat router should be set to UPnP for ease (so you don't need to manually forward a port on your modem/router.) Otherwise yes you can manually configure your devices to allow port 6346. I do believe there is a bug in LW 4.6 with UPnP (see: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...threadid=34327 but don't know if that applies to you.) LW 4.8 has been released but don't know if it's solved the problem yet due to the history page not being updated yet. |

| Many thanks. I've done quite a bit of reading today regarding NAT and have even read the instruction manual for my router (!), but to no avail. I've tried using UPnP and not, also forwarding the port in my router. Interestingly, the router log shows blocked requests to port 6346 which would support the "false" reading in the Bug Report. At the moment I'm a DMZ - something else I've learnt - which I hope (correctly?) shouldn''t fill me with dread since I'm using a Mac. Thanks for the 'heads up' regarding 4.8....I have it downloaded now, after figuring out that I actually WAS downloading 4.8 and not the stated 4.6. Doh! |

| Yeah LW's very slow to update their pages. I can't even tell you what changes they've made at this point. So I don't know whether they've fixed UPnP or not. Though they've probably at least fixed one of the issues but perhaps not for lan yet. What is your brand & model of modem-router? |

| It's a Safecom SWBRU-54108 *ducking* :-) Yes, I know....I've found out today that it and others of its ilk (chipset), are the horse and cart end of the router market. But, THEN, I didn't know anything about routers and now I know loads (lol) even for a girl. Anyway...not much use for P2P or gaming, although I'm not exactly sure why. I'm using L/W 4.8, I'm a DMZ, no local firewall, yet I'm still receiving "false" incomings. Downloading fine...only received one upload so far, which failed. I'll see how it goes, but it looks very much as if I'm destined to be a freeloader by default :-( |

| Did you set up a Static ip? As far as Need More Sources goes, if the search results are up there, then I 1st try to stop the downld & then reselect from the search results. I may back this up with an occasional new search. If the search results are still up there, I may also resume them. Both of these may work. I prefer to leave Resume function as last choice. |

| Good point and something I thought about. I didn't set-up a static IP because I use Mac filtering and thus my IP address remains the same and doesn't expire. Of course, these are the thoughts of a newbie to wireless networking and perhaps the reality is different?! |

| OK this is a different brand of modem but I wonder if the same applies: http://www.usr.com/support/doc-popup...es/rtr-faq.htm (half-way down page.) I don't know about DMZ other than what it means & stands for, nor do I know about mac filtering. I found this which gives some good overall descriptons: http://www.networkeverywhere.com/sup...tersupport.asp More results HERE! Last edited by Lord of the Rings; March 1st, 2005 at 11:39 AM. |
