Not sure if this will help you, but try using port 8080.


XBMC REMOTE SETUP:
In the XMBC Remote app that I have, when you open the app, click settings and then click add host.

Name it whatever....."Livingroom"
Host or IP Address.....IP address of the computer you are using as the HTPC
HTTP API Port..... 8080
Username.....Name you put into the XBMC setup page
Password.....Come on, do I have to explain this one?

Leave everything else alone

XBMC SETUP:
System/Settings
Network
Allow control of XBMC via HTTP....turn this on
Port.....8080
Username.....Same as XBMC Remote
Password......Come on man
Web Interface......I use wTouch

When in doubt on this page, turn everything on if it doesn't work the first time.

Take a look at this site, it's the xbmc remote that I use.
