Direct Connect Questions

so i've been trying to direct connect to my cousins PC through Limewire & its not working. i beleive its my Firewall or router doing it.

is there away around this problem of mine without turnning the firewalls off or disconnecting my router?


Router is a DLink
Firewall Is ZoneAlarm Security suite

ty in advance

and sorry my spelling sucks

Hey Jay, You may need to Forward a Port to allow access through the DLink. Can you give the Model # of the Router. Also make sure you are giving Full access to LW through ZA.

DLink DI-604

Try this. Make sure you set up a Static IP Address First. Instructions are in the Link Below.
Port Forwarding for the Dlink DI-604

Also make sure you don't have Windows Firewall enabled.
Hope this Helps.
