I used a BT Home Hub 3 (This is a very popular UK internet provider supplied router). No wireless isolation function
No other devices, I have an iPhone 5 and alfred remote is doing the same on that as I reported earlier.
Tried setting up a new account as per some other forum entries and the results are still the same.
Frustrating as I love Alfred and use it all the time

When you go to the "Add iOS Remote" step on your Mac, can your iOS device see the Mac at all?No not at all, just has my router name and keeps searching5. Are you running anything that could block connections? (i.e. Little Snitch, NetBarrier, firewall settings on your Mac or network)No firewall running and have Little Snitch running with Alfred allowed and have turn it off but still refuses to connect.Never managed to get it connected using either the automatic or a direct connection.Can anyone help ?

Tried it on the network in my office and it connected first time, got home and recycled the BT HomeHub and tried again. It works yippee !! Guess a full recycle of all devices and the router helped with whatever the issue was.
