I'm working on this too, so keep in touch. So far force ip in LW; allow Gnutella/Limewire (6346) in the OSX System Preferences ->Internet & Network -> Sharing -> Firewall -> New.

Then the router needs to map at least port TCP 6346 from the NAT'ed ip to the public IP. That's all I know so far . . .

Anyone else please chip in. Cheers.

[edit: can you take your router to a pc and configure it there? I was told to do this with a GPS that had no Mac software]
