LW automatically comes up with the brick icon after you open it. Give it some time to settle before using. Also, after LW's been open for about 15 mins or more, do this test: Bug Report instructions & sample image Is the result True/False?

If false, then the issue might be with your modem/router. Can you tell us the Modem / router brand name & model numbers?
