Plex on PS5 can't connect to Synology Plex Server

Plex Players Gaming Consoles

Server Version#: 1.32.8.7639
Player Version#: 5.74.0

I have installed the latest Plex Client on my PS5 Slim. I’m hosting the Server on a Synology DS218j.

Plex works perfectly on my Google TV, my Macbooks and iPads and iPhone. Just on the PS5 it does not connect to the media server and drops the error: “[Server name] is Currently unavailable” and “Please verify that the server is running and has a network connection. If you need additional help, please visit …”

I already added the IP of the PS5 to the “List of IP addresses and networks that are allowed without auth”. This did not do anything.

Any idea what else I could try?

Strange, I’ve been seeing the same issue on my own server since last night.
Can play files in plex on my computer from my server, streams to my android devices no problem… but my media is unavailable on my PS5.

I’ve reset my network and all my devices so far. Reinstalling Plex PS5 is my next step.
