Unfortunate Accident is flying high
Default

Thank you, birdy

My LW connection is All Blue/Green Bars Turbo-Charged Connection.
I turned off windows firewall and configured McAfee to allow LW.
(exactly as shown in "Port Forwarding for the McAfee Security Center" Link you provided)
I then closed LW waited 5 minutes then restarted LW but, wall still remained.

I then followed instructions in the link you provided:"Port Forwarding for the 2 Wire 2701HG-B".
But, when I got to the "Firewall-Edit Application" part, entered "Limew1" as shown and hit "ADD DEFINITION" I got the "ERROR An unknown error has occurred" message. So I was unable to continue through the steps.

Is there something I'm not doing or should I try something else?

Also, my McAfee Security has expired and is out-dated, should I disable McAfee-firewall and enable Windows-firewall then configure windows-firewall to allow LW?

I'm not computer savvy and learning as I go.

Thank you!
