Remote connection issues on WP8

[ShmickyD]

I can setup BitTorrent Remote for Windows Phone 8 easily, and it works the first time I use it. Whenever I go to use it again, it does not connect until I turn the remote functionality on and off again on my computer. When I try to connect, I get this error message:

"Cannot establish connection to remote service'.

I am using a mac and a Lumia 820 from within the same WiFi network (created with TimeCapsule).

Any ideas?

*EDIT: I can also connect to remote.bittorrent.com on both phone and computer's internet browsers.

Where do you get the "Cannot establish connection to remote service" message?

Are you using proxy settings on your computer?

[ShmickyD]

Message occurs when I open BitTorrent Remote on phone. It's at the top of the screen where it flashes through a few messages, such as Authenticating..., before showing the message.

No proxies as far as I can tell, unless a TimeCapsule has a hidden default setting. The internet goes directly through the modem so the TC handles ip addresses, etc.

Do I need port forwarding setup?

No, but you need to set remote up in BitTorrent on your computer.
