Plex is being a bit ‘spammy’ in your logs but something on your network is at that address and is advertising itself when it probably shouldn’t

Well, I see, the think that I have nothing on this IP sub address !! xxx.xxx.168.x
this is very weird , I would love to have an idea to trace back who is using this IP address on this port and what is the relation with plex ! a plugin ?

There is the nmap command line tool for Linux. There should be a graphical version for windows and mac as well.

It will query your LAN and show you every device it sees. (by manufacturer name)

no body is listining on this ip address (192.168.168.1)
I thing that somehow the Plex server is trying to access this IP but he is should not !
The thing is why and from where ? ( ERROR - Error issuing curl )

7

is related to this ticket ? I am pretty sure now it is related to upnp !
