A mini tutorial of how to open ports for Windows Media Connect
First you must go at the "Network Monitor" panel.
There you should click with the right button of the mouse and choose "Add rule"->"add"
at the new window that appear you should put the following 2 rules:

1. Rule for TCP protocol

Action = Allow
Protocol = TCP
Direction = In
Source IP = Any
Remote IP = your IP adress (you can also use "Any", if you are using a modem and not a router; by this you won't have to change the IP address every time you connect in internet )
Source port = Any
Remote port = "A set of ports" = 2869,10243

2. Rule for UDP protocol

Action = Allow
Protocol = UDP
Direction = In
Source IP = Any
Remote IP = your IP adress (or "Any" )
Source port = Any
Remote port = "A set of ports" = 1900,10280,10281,10282,10283,10284


ps. After creating the rules remember to move the rules up, over the default rule "Block IP in".

What if you open Tools/Network at Media Player and you set up your own port(s). Or i missunderstand what the Media Connect is about?

Media connect is for comunicating with external devices and trasfering mp3s, videos, etc. from your computer at them and the other way around. If you change the default ports, you will have to modify the above rules and use the ports that you want Wink
