Enabling UPnP should be fine. If it supports UPnP then nothing should need to be done except enabling UPnP. However, that depends how well UPnP on your device works. Some brands use different UPnP technology & aren't very reliable, in which case port forwarding is better. http://www.portforward.com/routers.htm

I'm not sure about setting up XP firewall because I don't have XP.

Even with Windows Firewall off it says it detects a Firewall, so it must be my router. Ill try ure link now. Ty! ^^

edit: Its my Windows XP Firewall.. -_- I just tried again, no firewall detection anymore.

edit: Nvm, it works now ^^ Ty for your help! UPNP was default on off, that caused the firewall problem.

Good to hear. Happy downloading.

Hi! I´m having problems in downloading files. LW looks for files without problem but I can´t download them. I´ve tried: unpn is OK. I´ve followed the 16 instructions and does not work. I´ve updated the Java and does not work
I¨ve no router. ram 512, broad band, connecting at my home, no Xp firewall, lw 4.12.11 java 5.0. I´ve tried the test and it worked. I´m not sharing connections. I see the brick i front de globe all the time.
Please, help!!

What happens when you try to download a file (we can't guess)? Does the file just sit there & not move into the download pane, or does it sit connecting for ages & then get stuck needing sources forever??

If you see a brick wall in front of the globe, there's a firewall problem somewhere. What are your details?
