For years I've been using a non-standard port number for my remote access to HS.
I've recently purchased a Nokia N800 Internet Tablet with which I am very pleased.
However, when accessing HS remotely from the N800 using free WiFi (airport, library, etc) I can never log onto HS. I'm pretty sure that it's because the free WiFis are blocking many non-standard ports.
Question:
How dangerous is it to use the standard port 80 for HomeSeer? How open to being attacked am I likely to be?
What other ports besides port 80 are free WiFi spots likely to leave open that I could use in HS's web access instead of 80?
