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.

Please choose the correct section for your problem. 7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required. 8.

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. |

 Do you have Airport 4.2? According to the link I gave, this version is required in order to enable NAT-PM. Check software update to ensure you have already installed the aireport update. If you can't get anywhere with this, then manual port forwarding it the way to go. If you're concerned that port 6346 might be blocked or shaped by your ISP (internet service provider), then try a port between 49152 - 65535. Likewire you'd need to put this number into LW's manual port forward & also the Listening port. In fact, before you do manual port forwarding, try changing the listening port to one in the range suggested; eg: 64049. And see if that makes a difference. BTW who is your ISP? Your version of LimeWire, did you mean version 4.0 or 4.10 or another. Please let us know. BTW I'm guessing your admin password for the airport will be the same as your Mac. If not, ask whoever else has admin abilities for the computer. Perhaps you haven't set one up for the airport yet. Did you check the manual?  |

| okay. i have airport 4.2 i dont think i can enable NAT-PM so i will try different port numbers but does that mean i keep going through all numbers until i see th brick wall down? i think my ISP is blocking it, i use a network from the city i live in. everytime i want to get online i have to enter numbers to and letters shown above login. i also tried using my password for the computer and it didnt work for "other" in airport admin. also, i have limewire 4.10 perhaps i havent set up something for the airport... i will try the port number, but when i try 64049 in listening should i keep the manual 6346? will i know instantly when i have access by the brick wall? thanks again for all your help!!!!! |

| Port 6346 test will show that your router & ISP is not blocking that port for outgoing requests. But for incoming, the airport still might be at fault. Who is your ISP (internet service provider)? Yes there is a chance they're using a special anti-p2p program to detect & filter out p2p programs to either affect their bandwidth or stop them connecting. BTW I've never used an Airport myself & don't know the differences between models, etc. But did you check your airport manual for how to access/create/change your admin password for the device? |

| You didn't say which LW 4.10.x version you have. The present official version is 4.10.9, but the beta 4.11.0 has been released. The official version get it here http://www.limewire.com/english/content/download.shtml The beta get from here http://www.limewire.com/english/content/beta.shtml Edit: I just realised you said in the beginning you're a pro user. If that's the case, you can downld the newer version from your personal downld page. Also you'll find a link to the pro beta at the bottom of that page. http://www.limewire.com/english/cont...pro_lookup.jsp You can also send a message to LW Pro support giving them the same details we've discussed here to see if they have any ideas. You could also try another OSX gnutella program to see if you have the same problems. Either FrostWire which is almost the same as LW, get it here http://www.frostwire.com/static/downloads.html Or else try Phex from here http://phex.kouk.de/mambo/content/view/17/29/ Last edited by Lord of the Rings; March 19th, 2006 at 08:48 AM. |

| okay. i guess i will try that stuff. when i open limewire it only says 4.10 can you answer my question about how restarting limewire if i change preferences? do i have to restart it or will the brick wall just come down? or should i wait 15 minutes or something like that. i still havent tried changing ports because i want to know if i have to restart limewire everytime i change the number. i saw in previous threads that people who have pro should have recieved two emails, the second being a help link, i have only received one and i purchased it over a month ago from the official site... i tried bittorrent yesterday and was having the same problems. one more question, you should only have one firewall open right? so if i try to use bittorrent i should turn gnutella firewall off? thanks! |
