I think it may be my router or ISP I called them they said they don't block p2p

we got the router about the same time we switched ISP's so am not sure where the problem is this is the first time I have tried connecting to LW since we got the router and new ISP

Rogers are known to block p2p, but they wont tell you that...

You could try changing the listen port in limewre...
go to Tools > Options > Advanced > Firewall
and try something between 49152 up to 65535, try this one 64049....

I just looked at the Port Forwarding site and your router wasn't listed, the closest was a 432, you could try logging into your router and see if it's the same set up as this one and try Port Forwarding...
