Thumbs down Norton is obsessive security...

Norton is known by being obsessively worried about security, so, it could be blocking P2P traffic no matter what, i suggest you to move to another suite/firewall dude...

Norton is fussy, & you need to reconfigure it for each version of LW. See Reconfiguring Norton Firewall.

Using your browser (try using Internet Explorer) type this into your address bar http://192.168.0.1 & tell us what happens.
That should be the telnet address for your Motorola SB5120. Do you get a log-in page?
