  It's a computer!  :-)

  The GUI tool is "system-config-securitylevel", but it does not
appear to be able to do  anything at the interface level.  It wants
you to work in terms of UDP and TCP service ports.  :-/

  I did some Google work with "HDHomeRun firewall ports" and the like,
and couldn't find anything useful.  SiliconDust's website seems to be
a veritable ocean of cluelessness.  Belch.  :-P  Popular suggestions
appear to be ports 5000, 65000, 65001 (TCP and UDP, since nobody knows
which).  Try adding exceptions for all of those using
"system-config-securitylevel" and see what happens.

  If that fails, email me the contents of your /etc/sysconfig/iptables
file (off-list) and I'll see if I can figure out where things went
wrong.
