Comment (by hdus):

 Replying to [comment:1 jef]:
 > The first url is used for the GetCapabilities request.  The
 GetCapabilities response contains an url that is used to the GetMap
 requests that actually load the images to display.
 I checked the Capabilities output and I see a well defined onlineressource
 with port 8080:

 <OnlineResource xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"
 xlink:type="simple"
 xlink:href="http://srsofaioi12288:8080/geoserver/wms?SERVICE=WMS&amp;"/>

 In addition the OnlineRessource shows SERVICE=WMS after ? thats the reason
 for the twice SERVICE=WMS, but one 80 is missing. I've to correct my
 former post. With the WMS connector QGIS shows the same faulty behaviour.

 the second url you see.  That would be a problem of the WMS server.

 off, checking the visibility box triggers the first GetMap request.
