Title: Techie Help Post by: walrus on Sunday, June 18, 2006, 21:52:07 My Limewire is being a bitch and keeps refusing to connect on start-up - is there a problem with my settings? Is there anything I can do to try and make it behave, or is it a problem their end? I wish I was good at figuring stuff out.... Really want to download Rooster and Thom Yorke's new songs!
:D Title: Techie Help Post by: flammableBen on Sunday, June 18, 2006, 22:04:37 Never used limewire, but if you're on a network then you might want to check your router hasn't given you a new IP address so your port settings are wrong, although it should still connect.
Might just be them. Title: Techie Help Post by: Simon Pieman on Monday, June 19, 2006, 00:07:06 Yeah do what Ben says and also check the port is forwarded if this is the case as well.
Are you using Limewire Pro, because I think that's also supposed to be quicker? Title: Techie Help Post by: hansgruber on Monday, June 19, 2006, 06:34:53 I had a problem with Limewire a while back. Not really a techie solution but uninstall/reinstall worked for me!
Title: Techie Help Post by: walrus on Monday, June 19, 2006, 21:08:01 Weird.... It seems to connect during the day but not at night. Maybe it is a problem their end after all. Cheers for the suggestions guys, I've had a look at the connectivity settings and it seems in order, though I'm a bit clueless... I may try that reinstall if it persists.
