We have recently signed up to xent (fusion) and are loving it.

However we can no longer use Limewire - it just won't connect.  Assume this is something to do with a setting on a firewall but not really sure where to start looking.

Anyone else out there had this problem?

We have Dynalink modem anda Linksys WRP400 router.

Cheers
Susan

Are you using Dynalink in half-bridge mode (IP extensions) into WRP400? If not, then the double NAT may be your problem.

My dad was having the same problem the other day but he is on ihug (Vodafone).

We installed the latest version for the Limewire website, and then just left it to connect for ages and it came right after about 30 mins of trying to connect.

Works fine for me here on Xnet, not that I use it.

I think the real question here is why you'd want to connect to Limewire? Go bittorrent...
