Server Version: 1.41.3.9314
As the title suggests, my host has two network adapters: a Wi-Fi adapter (192.168.0.60) and an Ethernet adapter (192.168.1.5). By default, on Windows, Plex prioritizes Ethernet for network communication. However, I need to prioritize the Wi-Fi adapter. I set the preferred adapter in the network options, but it doesn’t take effect. After enabling remote access, it still shows 192.168.1.5:32400 → 115.****.*****:32400. How can I resolve this?
Why would you want to use wifi? wired connections are 99.9% of the time faster and more reliable than wifi
Disable the Ethernet, or, Make the Wi-Fi the priority in Windows
Local clients will strongly prefer a server that’s on the same network as them. Which network are the clients on?
Are you trying to do this for local clients, or remote clients? For remote clients, you’re never* gonna get Plex to work on anything but the main system interface. Whichever interface has the default gateway, that’s gonna be the one Plex uses. This isn’t a Plex limitation, it’s a Windows/Routing thing.
