| What's the model of your wireless router(example - WR850G). It probably needs configured for LW to work. See this thread: Connection problems? Check here first!

| In LW go to Tools>Options>Advanced>Firewall Config, and you can change the listen on port from there. Try something from 50000 To 65000. If you port forward, the listen on port and the port forward should be the same number. Press apply after making changes and you may have to restart LW for the changes to take affect.

| Pick a number like 64049. Sometimes isp's don't block the ports in that range. It's pretty much a shot in the dark. Here's some others to try: 1111, 3500, 4008, 1203, 80, 20282, 10000, 443, 40475. In case your wondering, I got those numbers from this thread: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...14&#post179814
