Plex.tv is down again

[sebkar]

Same here.

https://status.plex.tv says everything is running fine and yet I can’t access my library locally or remotely which I could a fre hours ago. Neither can my relative.

Sadly I had forgot to change the authentication setting after getting new IP for my devices

I think the Plex staff dos a wonderful job, even if most of what they do is nothing I care about, but this ■■■■ needs to stop.

I’m in Sydney, Australia and am still having issues accessing plex.tv.
From my mobile I have no issues but from my home ISP I cannot. On Firefox I get "Unable to connect, via command line curl I get:
Trying ip…
TCP_NODELAY set
Connection failed
connect to ip port 443 failed: No route to host.
It does that for all 3 IPs the domain resolves to.
Interesting thing is I can access all subdomains, including www but that’s because they resolve to different IPs.

plex.tv IPs - 99.80.242.242, 99.80.231.223, 99.81.213.165
www.plex.tv IPs - 104.18.156.41, 104.18.157.41

Any help/update would be appreciated.

Why? No offense by if you and plex as a company cannot take criticism and angry users then perhaps you should realize there is a problem and resolve the issue. I agree with the “if you can’t stand the heat, get out of the kitchen” approach you are taking but when the company’s actions start the fire–over and over again, then maybe they should actually do something to extinguish the flames permanently.

Closing each and every single thread and ignoring the userbase isn’t going to magically solve the issue and make it go away. Though it may make Plex’s revenue stream go away when users finally cannot take it any more and switch to another platform

You are placing your frustrations in the wrong location sir. Allow the users to discuss what they want to discuss without intervention. Attempting to silence people via a dictatorship heavy-handed approach isn’t going to make it go away.

Fully agree. Plex announces that their media server is for “cord cutters” but won’t work if a server looses connection.

So the question is really pressing: why can’t I watch my family photos, if the internet is down?

PS: Emby wasn’t affected by the increased load on the net. Looks like Embys architecture is much more user-friendly (while prob. being less friendly for marketing and data gathering purposes)
