Can't connect on port

Keeps sayin I need to enter a new port. But no matter what I type in it says it's unavailable.

It sounds like you are behind a firewall. Firewalls are designed to block unauthorised communication - they can be postively draconian sometimes.

It sounds like all the ports on your machine have been blocked excepting a few for essential communication.

Port 80 is the HTTP port and stands a good chance of being open. However, you use a non-HTTP standard on the HTTP port at your own risk.
