Limewire Keeps Shutting Down after 5-30 minutes of it running After I startup LW, it shuts down again on it's own after any other warning. I searched the forums, found this, went through all the steps, but now it shuts down even faster. What else should I do to prevent this from happening? Quote:
2. none. have a router though (if that counts) 3. 1 GB 4. over 100 MB 5. broadband' 6. modem: linksys BEFCMU10 Etherfast Modem router: WAS FIRST: D-link DI-614+ WAS: Belkin Wireless G router NOW: Netgear Rangemax Wireless Router WPN824 7.

Try the advice here http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showpo...37&postcount=2 I can't find any info about a D-Link DI 6144 (614+ yes...is that 6144 a typo?). If the router supports UPnP, enable it within the router & choose the UPnP option within LW's tools > options > advanced > firewall config. Apply > ok to save. If that's no help, have a look through your router's manual for info about how to set up port forwarding. Here's a link to instructions for the DI-614...log into your router & see if the pages look the same as in these instructions. You might be able to use them for your router. http://www.portforward.com/english/r...+/Limewire.htm Note that you have to set up a static IP LW's listening port & the port forwarded must be the same number. |

sorry, was a typo, so i made a static IP address and set it to Manual Port Foward (should i have set it to UPnP?) I'll report back on whether or not this worked! EDIT: didn't work... Last edited by ElMonoDeFeo; February 17th, 2007 at 07:06 PM. |

no, and now LW doesn't even recognize that I have internet at all... I was also having trouble connecting to the internet myself, so i had to right-click the little wireless system tray icon and hit "repair" ouchies... what now? EDIT: I went back and ticked the use UPnP one, and now i see no firewall, and LW recognizes my connection. I'll leave it on this so i can at least download stuff until further instructions (did that sound rebel-ish? sorry if it did) Last edited by ElMonoDeFeo; February 18th, 2007 at 10:14 AM. |

It's shutting down XP? Are you getting the blue screen? Your earlier posts said that LW was shutting down...not that XP was shutting down Try Java 1.6. Remove all your other Java versions before installing the new one. http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp If you're seeing the blue screen http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...&highlight=bsd |
