Hehehe, might be getting somewhere now:wink:
Just remember though, if there is some throttling from your ISP, getting rid of the firewall problem's not going to magically make your speeds jump up!
First of all try enabling UPnP within the router. Once you've done that, within LW go tools > options > advanced > firewall config. Check the 'use UPnP' option & apply. You might have to give it a while before the firewall icon goes away. If you're not sure about how to enable UPnP, have a look through the link below.

If enabling UPnP doesn't work, you could try port forwarding. Click on the link below for a guide. Don't forget to set up a static IP address first, you'll see a link for that within the guide. Once port forwarding's in place, again give LW some time to settle down & wait to see if the firewall icon goes away.
