I have logged in to second life mabey five times successfully, but now I am failing during the handshake process. I can't figure out what I may be doing wrong.

I built a new pc in the last several months that should be able to run any current game out there fairly well for at least a year or so. I got an E8400 dual core with 2 gigs of ddr2 800 memory, and a GeForce 8800Gt video card with 512 MB of memory.

I can run every game or app just fine that I have come across except second life. What gives? Is there some kind of router/firewall setting that I have missed. That is the only thing I can think of that could be the problem.

Wired or Wireless?

The Knowledge Base says: Second Life needs to connect to ports 443/TCP, 12035/UDP, 12036/UDP, 12043/TCP, and 13000-13050/UDP.
