For instance, my default gateway shows as 192.168.1.1 and my IP address shows as 192.168.1.10.
So 192.168.1.10 is the one that I've used within TCP/IP properties to set up my static IP.

In case you need to check your port forwarding, the guide for your router is here: http://portforward.com/english/route...1/Limewire.htm
Unfortunately, that guide's using screenshots from an older version of LW. You'll need to go to Tools > Options > Advanced > Listening port within your LW to set your port number etc.

Hope that all makes sense!
