haha, not downloading porn, just music.

kayso, recently we've gotten a router to do wireless internet, right?


well, i get onto limewire and its "detected a firewall."
but it just will not connect for anything.

it says starting connection, but never goes through.

no new music is making me sad :/

The router has its own firewall. You have to log into it and change the firewall options in the router. Thats the limit of my knowledge.

How many sources is it finding?

Turn off the firewall on your router, it might block some of the file transfering

It's either the router's firewall or your computer's. If it was working without the router, then have the person who has the router on the computer to check through the settings and let Limewire through the firewall.

how do i do that?
is it on my computer?

where would it tell me about the sources?

When you click to dl something, it says downloading from (x) sources

What kind of router do you have? If it's linksys it's easy

if not go to run type CMD

it will pull up command prompt, its #ping

Look for the IP of your router

Pull up internet Explorer, paste the IP address into there

It SHOULD log you on

You have to access the router through it's port, which, again, is the limit of my knowledge. The port is a 4 3 digit numbers seperated by periods(like ###.###.###.###) and depending on the brand of router, it could be different for each one. THEN if you DO manage to make it into the router, you need the admin password(which is usually 'admin' by default.) From there you could edit the settings. But It'd be wise to have someone who knows what they're doing, you could potentially fuck up your entire network.
