I don't know whether your modem utilises UPnp, but just in case it doesn't you might be advised to forward a port. The most important thing here is to set up a static ip 1st & get it right or else it won't work!

The steps:

1. Set up a static ip

2. Forward port 6346 using these instructions: http://www.portforward.com/efficient/5200.htm & the instructions for setting up a static ip are included!

3. Within LW: Manual port forward instructions & sample image & 2 posts after that.

By the way: Did you configure your firewall so it allows LW full access (advisable not to have 2 active firewalls b/c they can interfere with each other); Firewall configuration instructions (click on link) (Win XP has its own firewall. To disable it; go to the control panel, double click on Windoze Firewall, check the disable box) But you should have at least one active firewall for your own protection.
