XLink Kai's homepage = www.xboxlink.co.uk

Kai doesn't use any port, in that when you run Kai, it chooses a random port and works on it. However, some routers and other network setups block UDP requests. What you can tell your university, is to choose a port (or you can choose a port). Make the port around the 10000-40000 range, any one port number will do.

If the university already has a port opened up across the network, you could use this, as long as the port is opened on UDP. If this is the case, just enter the port number into the 'Kai Port' box, when you press 'Advanced' after running the launcher.
