Questions

What ports and protocols does MyHouse Online use?

What ports do I need to allow traffic on in my firewall or Internet security software?

Answer

The MyHouse Online Service will work for almost all Internet connection configurations, including most firewalls and with Network Address Translation (NAT). If you have extra security on the computer where you are using MyHouse Online, you may need to make some changes to the software to allow your MyHouse connection to work. Before you do, be sure you are logged in as a Power User or Administrator and can affect these changes.

Make sure the computer is able to accept incoming and outgoing TCP connections to myhouse.x10.com on ports 80 and 8001.

Since each security program and firewall is different, you will need to consult your manual or the provided technical support for information on how to make the necessary changes.
