Why not simply port forward a separate port for each of LW, Aquisition & Azureus. I don't understand your UPnP settings since my device doesn't support such. And port forwarding is more reliable in any case. Steps are ... 1. set up a static ip. 2. Forward a port. 3. Set LW appropriately; Manual port forward instructions & sample image
The windows instructions are here http://www.portforward.com/english/r...B/Limewire.htm

Mac static ip instructions are http://www.blizzard.com/support/wow/?id=aww01180p OR (ignore domain boxes) http://www.sonic.net/support/ss/mac/osx_staticip/

Default stupid question perhaps?

i'm having trouble connecting on my macbook so i checked out the help pages on the limewire site and it tells you how to configure your firewall to allow limewire to connect.

it says to create a new port and enter the TCP and UDP port numbers "as specified by limewires settings"

i can't find these numbers, i can only find the listening port number!

any help would be excellent, cheers!
