I am currently running android things on my raspberry pi. I have created a simple audio broadcasting app using the sample in the documentation. When using my emulator to test the app, I am able to successfully created a broadcast stream and listen it on the server. However, when I attempt to run the app on the raspberry, I get a connection\_timeout error.

```auto
A broadcast component reported the following error during the PREPARE_FOR_BROADCAST transition

    severity : ERROR
    error class : WOWZStreamingError
    error code : 49
    description : A timeout occurred while attempting to connect    

```

Is there something specific about the raspberry pi’s hardware that is causing the connection failure?

I also receive the following error at times as well:

```auto

Hello @Kyle Pearson

Please make sure that you have TCP port 1935 open on the Raspberry PI, and it can reach the external network your Wowza Streaming Engine (Cloud) server.
