I downloaded the basic limewire on my macbook (it is brand new also) and I can't get more than one connection bar. I was wondering how I could get better connection. thanks

Sorry, i have no idea what i am doing
but what are the UDP and TCU port numbers and how do I find them or whatever I need to do with them. thanks

Sorry for the late reply.

See OSX Firewall settings for Tiger.

If you are port forwarding, you should enter the same numbers. But remember you first need a static ip to port forward.
