	If there is a firewall between the smartphone or tablet and the device running Kodi or on this device itself, you need to open two ports to enable remote control. The first one is the port of the ~~[[Settings/Services/Webserver\|~~http server]] which is 8080/tcp unless otherwise configured. The second port is the Kodi event port 9777/udp. Many remotes work without the second port, but have limited functionality (e.g. keyboard does not pop up automatically when required). Others like [[Yatse]] do not work at all without it.
