Hi MM

First, let me say that I am not a Mac user, I use a PC but the principle of port forwarding is the same for both computers.

That said, I think what you have told me is that your PC is the administrator for your router while your Mac is the client. Therefore, what you will have to do is set up Limewire as an application assigned to your Mac and then perform the "Port Forwarding" configuration. This will tell your router that whenever you are using LW on your Mac port forward the connection.

Unfortunately, you will have to go through your router manual on how to assign applications to a client computer, I had to go through the same thing when attaching my son's PC wirelessly to my modem/router but I use the SpeedTouch 585 (v6).

And finally, don't forget to save your settings to your HD.
