Have desktop PC with Windows and Plex server on it, server is up and fine. I know last for sure because i have Smart TV with Plex client which is good(without considering the problems that do not touch the subject)
I recently paid Plex Pass and decided to give mobile app a try. And, like TC app, it shows my server as offline
PS: sry for bad english 
I keep complaining about this also.
A couple of times clearing the cache on the android app cleared up the problem for a day or two. But it always comes back.
I keep getting told my mobile device is not on my home network, which makes no sense to me. And that I need to open a port on my router so my mobile device can “see” my laptop.
Make sure the av/firewall is not blocking port 32400/tcp on the server.
I finally broke down and set up port forwarding for 32400 on my router. But still not working.
But now you saying I need to look at Windows firewall / anti virus product? I am not running anything which doesn’t already come with Windows 10. What do I need to look for to allow that port on my pc?
I was responding to the thread owner who is running ZoneAlarm.
