Default Limewire & my router.

hi all.

Since i started using my router instead of an adsl modem i cant get limewire to connect.

I tried letting it connect automatically and then tries specifying a port.

Any suggestions.

Installed frostwire but not had time to take a proper look yet. Does look identical to limewire though.
