Appendix A: Configuring Your Firewall

Firewalls on your computer often cause connection problems for Squeezebox Duet and other network devices. While it is not necessary to disable your firewall in order to allow Squeezebox to communicate with your computer, temporarily disabling it can be a quick way of diagnosing the problem.

If turning off your computer’s firewall allows Squeezebox Duet to connect to SqueezeCenter, you should turn it back on and configure it to allow communication on the following ports:

Port 3483 (UDP)

Port 3483 (TCP)

Port 9000 (TCP)

Logitech Technical Support can provide assistance with configuring the firewalls built in to Windows and Macintosh OS X.

Note: It is not necessary, or even desirable, to change the firewall settings on your router to use Squeezebox Duet unless your current firewall is configured to limit access only for specific local hosts. Consult a network professional if you are unsure of how to configure your network properly.
