Limewire not connecting

My computer which is connected to a wireless network at home is unable to connect to limewire. It worked fine when it was just solely connected to cable modem. With purchase of another computer which is the access point of the wireless network, it is not allowing me to connect limewire. I am able to connect to internet and browse. I know it has something to do with wireless router but i don't know what. Any advice from you technical gurus would be appreciated!!!

I would double check by plugging into the cable modem again, if that works then we know that your ISP has not blocked limewire. It is most likely a router issue like you said. What brand of router are you using? It is possible that by default the router blocks certain peer-2-peer ports for security purposes

Yes it did work when just plugged into cable modem. It is a LinkSys router. How do you access the router to do port settings and forwarding?
