limewire NOT working; i've tried EVERYTHING!

One option is to port forward your device. See PortForward.com - Port Forwarding Limewire on the Linksys WRT120N. Remember to set up a static ip address first before you actually forward a port on the router.

For LW 5's settings, see Manual port forward instructions & sample image. The one on the previous site shows a LW 4 example, not LW 5. If you download torrents also, you should probably make this port the same also.

i have the up2p so i don't see why i would need to forward my port, but i tried it anyways. it didn't work. now limewire won't connect at all, let alone search for things. so i changed everything back to the old ip settings, with the up2p still enabled.
