I've been working on this for a couple hours now... need your help please.

Can't seem to connect to desktop via wifi. I feel like i've tried everything 10 times. remote control doesn't work and library doesn't work. I keep getting a socket timeout.

XBMC 10.1 on desktop, network setup=all items checked, including port, username and password.

Phone: Android gingerbread 2.3 w/ official xbmc remote app.

Computer is hard wired to wireless router
phone is on wifi.

If I enter my computers IP into my computers browser, the XBMC web interface comes up. I can't get the same interface to come up on my phone.


Any thoughts?

OK.. mostly fixed my own problem.

I have to turn off Windows Firewall. I tried allowing XBMC within the firewall, but it didn't seem to let it through.

Any thoughts on how to allow XBMC to run while still having Windows Firewall on?

Thanks in advance
