Remote Access not working

Server Version#: 1.43.3.10861
Player Version#: 2026.15.0 (971050376)
<If providing server logs please do NOT turn on verbose logging, only debug logging should be enabled>

shortly after I updated to the current versionon the server, remote access has failed. I’ve been through the entire troublshooting guide and so far nothing has worked.

  • server was already on a statically reserved IP
  • switched from UPNP to static port forwarding
  • created DMZ on my local router
  • uninstalled and reinstalled plex server software
  • flushed DNS and reset Winsock via cmd prompt
  • nothing stands out in the server console logs while trying to enable remote access.

previously I’ve had this server’s remote access working via UPNP for over 2.5 years on several different providers’ equipment, including over 1 year on my current service.

I’m beginning to suspect I have an authentication / certificate issue, but I can’t seem to locate the local copy of it on my server or find where I can verify/reset it for my account online.

is anyone able to suggest a new course of action?
