The files are mainly mpg. or mpeg.

Even though I seem to have enabled the Upnp I still get the brick wall (and still no porn ). Would you recommend me trying to set the limewire configuration to a manual port? Then I just need to check whether my router has a firewall or not, right?

Manual port forwarding almost always works, while UPnP doesn't work always even if the manufacturer claims it does.

Try going to this site http://www.portforward.com/english/r...outerindex.htm and see if there are instruction for your router

note: Common things that people forget when doing this

1. Limewires manual port and listening port have to be the same number for this to work. (one between 50000 and 60000 recomended)

2. It is just as important to configure your computer to use a static IP (do not skip that step)

If you run into trouble or can't get it to work try posting the routers brand and model here

argh. following the guide Sleepless linked. Just finished setting up my static ip, but when I returned and followed the guide, when in dos directly afterwards, the part where I type "telnet 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1," I get the reply: "There couldn't be made a connection to the host on port 23. the connection was not made" (In danish, rough translation ) . So what went wrong, and what am i to do?

Thanks for all the help so far.

Which brand & model device(s) are you using? Port 23 is the normal telnet port.
