Help W/Connecting
 

hey guys...So i have an ibook G4 running limewire 10.4 (i believe) and ive never had a problem with it until i recently moved into an apartment complex that provides free internet. its high-speed, and surfing the web works great, but for some reason i cant connect to limewire (xbox live hardly ever works, but I can get a connection from it, if that means anything). any ideas?

*****EDIT*****

there is the little firewall symbol in the bottom left...i could never figure out why because i completely disabled mine, but ive come to find that it means there is a firewall somewhere else, I.E the router... so im assuming the complex im living in has some sort of protection on their network...is there any way I can get around this?

Have a nice friendly conversation with the Landlord & eventually discuss the option with him to open the device up so you can use p2p because you need to use it for your studies. :D It's prolly some type of router & prolly with its internal NAT firewall. If it supports UPnP then get him to enable it. If not, see if he will open a port for you such as port 6346. BTW with UPnP, any program that understands UPnP can communicate directly with the device & request it to open the port for that period.

BTW there's been other posters on the forums over time with the same issue. Friendly negotiation is probably the best bet! ;)
