Double-check your firewall.  Make sure Media Center and ports 52100-52199 are not blocked.

if you have a router you need to setup port forwarding also.

The screen with the 4 arrows and windows icon is for theater view mode only
If you want to control a different part click on the bar at the top and select where you want to play (here or *what ever you named the zone*)
