Hi Folks,  
After spending many time reading and trying by myself i am now asking for some help as I am stuck.

My Plex server is working but on Plex pannel my server is oftently flagged as " Not available outside your network" but it seems to work.

My setup is :  
Server Version#: 1.19.1.2645  
Using Docker Compose in bridge mode :  
Docker Server IP : 192.168.5.102

Plex docker details :

```auto
plexinc/pms-docker "/init" 6 days ago Up 3 days (healthy) 0.0.0.0:3005->3005/tcp, 0.0.0.0:8324->8324/tcp, 0.0.0.0:1900->1900/udp, 0.0.0.0:32410->32410/udp, 0.0.0.0:32400->32400/tcp, 0.0.0.0:32412-32414->32412-32414/udp, 0.0.0.0:32469->32469/tcp plex

```

And I use a nginx reverse proxy to open only 443/tcp for https.  
If i draw a flow diagram : Internet --\> Nginx Reverse Proxy 192.168.5.6 --\> Docker Server 192.168.5.102:32400 --\> Plex Container

Is it normal to have the remote access warning even if it seems to work ?  
Sometimes I have failure for example today the Plex for LG app is not working at all, saying that my server is unreachable.

Thanks

To give more context and validate my config.  
Please my below two screenshots that are showing my networking config

My domain is working, my reverse proxy also, all my websites are correctly acceisble using their vhost. Plex is working on my Android phone and on the iphone 4g.  
So it should be ok but why not ?

Thanks.

Reverse proxy bypasses Plex Remote networking so I guess it doesn’t matter if the indicator is working.
