thank you so much for helping me, Lisa.<div>port 80 does not seem to be open but 8080 is. Would you recommend changing the port in the xbmc box to 8080 or opening 80. No matter the recomendation would you show me how to open ports? That brings a question.... what is the difference between port 8080 and port 80?</div>
