99.81.153.144 my.plexapp.com # added by VPN ByPASS
99.81.164.127 SAME AS ABOVE
108.128.10.254 SAME AS ABOVE
104.20.12.29 plexapp.com

99.80.231.223 plex.tv
99.81.213.165 plex.tv
99.80.242.242 plex.tv
45.33.73.250 pubsub.plex.tv
172.104.211.98 pubsub.plex.tv
all of the above are added by VPN bypass which I didn’t even realize I still had on this machine and have since removed.
NSlookup plex.tv gives me the following
Server: dns.google
Address: 8.8.8.8
Non-authoritative answer:
Name: Plex.tv
Adresses: 99.81.164.127
108.128.10.254
99.81.153.144
Apologies I didn’t get this info up last night, thank you very much for the response and any help you can give.
