I have set up port forwarding. I have made sure there is no blockages on my firewall or ad blocking software. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Plex and gone to the extreme and done a system wide reset and yet I am still not able to get it to stay connected to remote access.
Some people I share with are at times unable to connect to my server. i have a friend with an LG TV and a PS4 who are not able connect at all as it states no media is shared,
I have just about had enough and about to walk away from Plex altogether.
Save yourself the headache and just switch to Emby.
@ChuckPa A official complaint has been filed against you with corporate. For future reference, just in case you happen to get a mod position on another forum, I would hold back on abusing your mod powers.
You have a lot of maturing to do before you are ready to be a mod on a forum of this size and scope.
That’s just funny, you definitely have not got a clue. There are many thousands successful remote users on windows using Plex. I share with a fellow forum member, using a VPN, 10,000 miles away. I live down under and if I can work it out, people standing on there head in the northern hemisphere should be able to ask their dog to help. Dogs are smart individuals, ask my kangaroos.
By the way who exposes there public email on a forum. Someone like this.
Why should I have spend my hard earned free time simply because Plex can’t get it’s ■■■■together when there are other apps out there now that do the same thing, only better, without bugs and more efficiently?
Obviously you have a problem grasping simplistic conversation.
No offense, but when I pay for a piece of software, I expect it to work as advertised without me having to spend my time off from work troubleshooting buggy programming.
Plex is a deprecated piece of software compared to what is available now.
HUH? I am a lifetime paid plex pass member. Guess again.
I am also now a lifetime Emby sub and once you switch, you will see just how much Plex is severely deficient.
To illustrate things on a basic level for you. You know the main street wherever you are from? A pothole pops up so they patch it and they continue to patch all the potholes until the main street is nothing but a bunch of patches covering the potholes and completely falling apart.
Good Luck with the Green monster, it’s was a disaster on trialing. But if your happy feeding a hungry mess, good luck. Your only beating a drum here, that heats a cannibal’s dinner bowl of untruths. There’s nothing like a heated dinner. Lol
Are you judging not having access by the red cross or green tick in settings? I ask because this can sometimes say “no access”: when it is actually working.
