If changing ports doesn't help, check with the complex's manager, or whoever's in charge of the internet. Find out whether they'll let you use p2p.
Or try some other p2p apps & see if the same thing happens.
Good luck:wink:

To be honest with you, if your ports are blocked then I don't think it's going to do much good. But try if you like.
I don't think you've given me the right model for your Belkin though, even Google doesn't bring up anything for that model...have a look again. Check the site below (click on link)...you'll see a list of Belkin routers. If yours is one of those, you'll find step by step port forwarding instructions:wink:

Did you ever change LW's listening port?

Jeffgon November 27th, 2006 03:39 PM

I thought that was the port I was supposed to change, I changed that once and it didnt work...

birdy November 27th, 2006 03:44 PM

Did you change to a high port, like 64049? Have you tried any other p2p apps & if so, does the same thing happen?
