Default trying to add the port to router

ok i have done everything on what it says, just to make sure, is the start and finishing ports 6346? and i think i done the ip bit wrong, is my computer IP the same as the router thingy? e.g 198.168.0 etc

on this site http://www.portforward.com/english/r...G/Limewire.htm

or is my zonealarm firewall blocking it? its allowed on the programmes but i saw this on the site

Adding An Exception For The Gnutella Port
Within LimeWire, go to: Tools > Options > Advanced > Firewall Config, and make a note of the listening port located in the box next to "Listen on Port"
Open the settings of your security program (usually by right-clicking the system tray icon)
Locate a section for adding exceptions for specific ports
Add the port specified in LimeWire's settings as an exception for both UDP and TCP, incoming and outgoing (also known as opening the port)

Does anyone who has zonealarm (lastest version) know how i can add this? all i could find was the IP things that had my rounter as one of them.
