Yeah Birdy I tried all that. I did also use that site to set up my westell 6100 modem/router. There is a built in router and that may have something to do with it. I have a static IP, port forwarding, and my firewall is accepting the program (LW).
All my computer information is above here. I hope someone can help. Dang thing is driving me nutz

Thanks,
Jason

Aaahhh, sorry about asking for your system details again...I copied/pasted part of my reply & forgot to remove the system details bit

Did you remove any other Java versions installed on your computer, so that the only version you have is 1.6.0_03?

If you're sure that you did the replacing of gnutella.net properly (with LW completely closed), try changing ports. In LW tools > options > advanced > firewall config, change LW's listening port to 65000 (or you can also try other ports in the range of 49152 - 65535). Change the port in the 'manual port forward' box to that same number > apply > ok. You'll need to go back into your router's config pages & change your forwarded port to the new number as well.
