My question is.... I purchased another laptop yesterday. HP DV9000 series with Windows Vista. The laptop on the main level of the home has Limewire 4.14.7 and is using the Linksys WRT54G without any problems and blazing fast download speed. No brick wall icon in front of the globe.

I am needing assistance with configuring this new laptop to be used on the second level of my home. I have LimewirePRO 4.14.8 installed and I have brick wall in front of the globe preventing me from getting good download speeds. How do I remove this icon and what do I need to do to share the same wireless router being used for my laptop downstairs. I have port forwarding configured for limewire on the laptop downstairs using port 6346. Can I use the same port for the laptop upstairs? Or do I setforth a different port? I tried both ways with no success. I tried it with the same port 6346 and a new port 8788. I don't really know what else I need to do....??

Can anyone offer any assistance....?? Let me know if there's any other information I might be able to lend.... thanks in advance for any help...?
