Have you made sure that the XP firewall is off? Double check that & also check your ghostwall config to make sure LW's given full access.

The Westell 6100 has an internal firewall. AFAIK your model's made specifically for BellSouth & so it might be slightly different to the standard 6100

If it supports UPnP, enable this within the router & choose the UPnP option within LW's tools > options > advanced > firewall config.
If that doesn't help, you can try port forwarding. Check the site below...there are step by step instructions.

And in case those instructions don't work, or pages don't look the same as your router:
