I can't get my Limewire to connect...
« on: October 18, 2008, 06:12:48 PM »
It's been not letting me connect for awhile, so today I got it together and deleted Limewire, then re-downloaded it, and it's still not connecting

I try disconnecting and then connecting again, closing the program then opening it again, and I tried to fuck with the firewell settings under my network connections, but nothing is working

can any of y'all help me out? much appreciated

Im having the exact same problem with mine, its been like that for awhile now.  I also tried deleting it then re-downloading,  and it still wouldnt connect.  I even turned my firewall off, and it wouldnt connect.

For those of you who are connecting through a router, try these steps:


Step 1. Set up a static IP address

Step 2. Port forward

Step 3. In Limewire, tools > options > advanced > firewall config. Tick 'manual port forward', add the listening port number to the box here. Apply.
