I went through and completely rebooted the machine instead of just restarting Plex. I went and tried a browser I’ve never used for Plex. All I get now is Plex is not reachable with no Auth prompt. This is connecting directly to the server via IP. Have not gone to app.plex.tv. The server is seei…

@thecarlosreyes This thread is not for that topic. Please create your own thread. @nydave69 Let’s spin this out into a working thread then link back. Sound good? Grab logs. Ping me when there?
