can i turn it on and off. should i just disable it and use nortan

No I wouldn't, it can get a bit difficult trying to turn it off...Just follow the instructions, it's not hard once you get going...;)

havn probs. im as far as googling my router #
is that the # i made up

You can't make one up...Can you log into your router using the default number given in the instructions...

it says 401 Authorization required:bangh:

Not good...The number that needs to be entered is your ISP's IP number, give them a call and ask them what it is...;)

ok i didnt type the right info in but i got an alternate ip address but i might not need it the default address is 192.168.1.1 where do i enter that # theres 2 ports in my limewire and theres a place to enter it in the instructions. do i leave out the dots

k imade it as far as putting in the global port range whats that? and whats the base port range?

Here is a easy why to get your IP information:

WhatIsMyIP.com - 75.126.211.156

Easy as that!
