Sygate Firewall and XBOX360 media centre

Hi folks,
I have a problem ..... I have a XBOX360 connected to one of my media centre PCs. The problem is that I can only use media centre on my 360 if and only if I exit (turn off) my Sygate Firewall. I am assume I need to manually enter some "advanced" firewall rules allowing certain ports to remain open for access from my local domain (192.168.x.x) etc. I do not really want to leave certain ports open over the web only locally.
Has anyone done this ????
