Exclamation Blocking Limewire through Router

Hi guys! I'm a huuuge fan of Limewire, but my customers at my Coffee House Wifi hotspot are abusing my service.

We'll have 5-12 people "LimeWiring" at the same time, and it jams the bandwidth.

What is the port to block on my Westell Router?

Do I have to set a range to block? : EG = 41856 - 61856


I appreciate any help someone can give me!

- Mark

Try 6346-6348, both TCP and UDP, both inbound and out. It won't completely
block it but performance may drop enough to discourage the worst leechers and
give you back just enough headroom to live with.
