![]() There's a WRG614. The port forwarding site's got a few versions listed but not a version 4, there's a v5 & v6. I'm guessing you'd just have to use the plain ol' 614 instructions ![]() http://www.portforward.com/english/r...4/Limewire.htm Don't forget to set up a static IP address first, there's a link (in red) for this within that set of instructions. After you do that & set up port forwarding, go to LW's tools > options > advanced > firewall config. Choose the 'manual port forward' option & enter the same port number as LW's listening port > apply. |

![]() It's an IP address that doesn't change. You'll need to set one up so that port forwarding can work through your router & then you'll need to type that static IP number into the router's config pages (as shown in the port forwarding instructions). Don't worry, it's safe! If you go to the link below, there are instructions for setting this up. Make sure to write the static IP down as you'll need to know it! http://www.portforward.com/networking/staticip.htm |
