Server Version#: 1.18.6.2368 [Screenshot 2020-02-17 at 18.22.55] Hello, My plex server which has worked in the past with remote access working with no issues. Remote access now decides to connect for about 10-15 seconds and then it disconnects, i have a port forwarding rule on my router which a…

I have managed to “fix” it. Not sure if it will work for others. Go to settings…server/settings/network look for enable relay and turn it off and save then turn it back on and save. (I might of restarted the server aswell) After doing this my server became reachable remotely again!

@01101011001010001 : Thanks. I looks from my side that Plex has fixed the issue. as of about 02:30PM EDT today (10/01/2021). Glad you found a work-around that seems to fix for you! On my setup, I don’t use the relay option as it sinks the bandwidth to stream direct-play 1080p or 4K. So that w…

It was already turned on, I never turned it on lol. I have transcoding turned off aswell for the same reasons. That’s the only thing that made remote access stay on. My brother still can’t access on his TV but can on his firestick. I dunno what’s going on lol.

@01101011001010001 Got it. It is the cert issue (invalidated certificates) that was causing the issue. (At least for the issue reports here over the last couple of days…). If you disable Secure Connections (Network->Secure Connections) in your Plex Server Network Settings, (and leave Relay di…

I’m also experiencing the same issues as many in this thread. Working well for months, then i noticed remote clients using plex relay after the last server update. My setup is kinda odd, I’m pfsense, static internal subnet, VPN gateway for most traffic, and the port forward out the regular WAN. I’…

Mine is fixed, I wonder how many people here have out of date servers? It seems in both server and player clients “Check for Updates” function is broken, so it won’t notify you that you’re on an old version even when clicking the button manually. I updated ubuntu plex server to " Version 1.24.4.5081…

[image] cwandep: Thanks. Sorry for the double post. I did check this morning and the issue is still the same so I have left the secure connection disabled. I appreciate your help last week. The issue with certificates for the old versions of Plex Media Server affecting remote access - as in t…

I tried doing that and I get the same issue, I’ve had no issues and nothing was changed. I’ve been using Plex server for years

Okay so I opened up another port 40000 and forwarded it and changed the Plex server settings and that didn’t work. It would do the same thing where it would last 5 seconds and go red. So I changed it back to the original port and now it’s working. I don’t understand but whatever
