Default Airport and Limewire -- Any Solution?

Still wrassling with Limewire and my Airport wireless network. Apparantly the Airport system has a firewall that allows in SOME downloads, but not others (and plays havoc with uploads as well!)

Someone suggested that the solution is Port Mapping, but this newbie needs more info than that -- there was a post with a lot of talk about pushing IP addresses, but afraid it was a bit over my head!

I DID see a post recommending that the solution is to go to the Port Mapping tap of the Airport Administration Utility, and entering the following info:

Public Port: 6346
Private Port: 6346

So far so good, but then it wants you to you enter your Private Address, and I'm afraid I got lost there -- where can I find this, and does it work?

Thanks

Glen
