This link will tell you how to enable UPnP. Don't worry that it's talking about Panasonic products!! It's a nice simple guide for UPnP Once you've enabled it, within LW go tools > options > advanced > firewall config. Tick 'use UPnP' & apply. Give LW half an hour to settle down & see if the firewall disappears.

Now if that doesn't work, the next step is manual port forwarding. The link below has all the info you'll need. Just remember to set up a static IP address, you'll see the prompt on the portforward page. If you skip this step then p/f won't work. Again, once you've set it up give LW half an hour to settle down.
