Hi All,
I just setup my SLA5500 and everything works fine except I cant get it to detect Windows Media Connect running on my laptop. I think it is a firewall issue(my laptop acquires firewall settings through group policy on my office domain). Does it seem logical that the firewall is blocking detection? If so, do I have any recourse except convincing my IT mgr to allow exceptions?

It is most probably a firewall issue as UPnP needs several open ports to work. Read this article:
