Thanks for the suggestions folks, I figured out the issue. For anyone else who has a similar problem, my issue was there was already another application using port 8080(sabnzbd) and so the tablet was actually connecting to the port just not displaying anything because it was the wrong application. If I start the connect server from the command line using a different port it works fine.

Does anyone know if there is a way to start the content server via the GUI using a different port?
