Donica,

With 3 pc's on the same router you will need to setup, STATIC ip's, individual ports in eah LW client, and forward the same ports to each PC's ip.

I'm still trying to "tweak" this app into shape myself.

First, I would try setting up all the clients on the lan with manual (STATiC) ip's, share a folder on each of them and see that you can access the shared folder thru the lan.

Then, you need to setup individual port "sets" on each one as well and FORWARD the "sets" per station from the router. This is in theory how it "should" work but this new age of P2P is quite a mix of clues instead of directions

Try this, under the firewall config of LW:

:Client one:
Listen: 6346
Manual port forward: 6346


:Client two:
Listen: 25201
Manual port forward: 25201


:Client three:
Listen: 25301
Manual port forward: 25301

For each station you set the port set the same FORWARDING port in the router to that stations IP. There seems to be some confusion on ports but in theory this should work. They are suppose to be TCP but you could try setting your router/firewalls to allow both both TCP/UDP.

Technically speaking that is all the more you should have to do! In theory, when client 3 sends out a request for something the server/client responding will send back info to port 25301 TCP on your router and then your router will FORWARD that info to the IP set for Client 3

In theory

Also, try disabling both Ipsecurity (IPSEC) and Block Wan Request. Consult your manual or www.portforward.com/routers.htm

<--NOTE--> Your router may differ from the one listed at the site. Also, check for router flashware/hardware/software upgrades!

=---> 25010-25792 optional safe ports to use! <---=

PLEASE POST BACK! GL!
