Extender uses additional ports on top of what Windows Media Connect uses to
enable things like the remote UI display. Given this, the fact that WMC
traffic gets through your firewall does not guarantee that Extender traffic
will also get through. Please try getting connected again following the
below steps:
1) Turn on the Windows Firewall
2) Temporarily uninstall any third-party firewall software (some firewalls
still block traffic when set to "disabled")
3) Reboot your Media Center PC
4) Go through the process of adding an Extender again
