Lord of the Rings has a distinguished reputation

You can try it, but the blockage is probably in your device. You need to do both! In LW go to menu Tools-Options-Advanced & in both Port & Firewall, enter the same port no. (Use 6346 but must be the same as the one you use for port forwarding on your device!) & tick the option box for Force IP. Press both the Apply & OK buttons.
