Here's my suggestion, manually forward a port thru your router! Take it or leave it lol

Instructions:
1. Set up a Static ip (most important)

2. Forward a port Hawking Wireless-G HWR54G port forward instructions (click on link) (instructions for this & static ip included)

3. Within LW, Manual port forward instructions & sample image & 2 posts after that.


4. Disable XP's firewall: either (a) go to the control panel, double click on Windows Firewall, check the disable box. OR (b) http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...620#post178620 The reason for this is that XP & Norton FireWalls interfere with each other & affect LW's connection abilities. M$ & Norton & other firewall producers all advise against running 2 firewalls simultaneously for various reasons inclluding dthe possibility of less security as a result!

5. Configure Norton FW instead: * Configuring Norton Internet Security
