Server Version#: 1.41.2.9200  
Player Version#: 10.24.0.2257

I made a post about this a few days ago but it might have been too long or in the wrong category because i didn’t get any replies. Ill try to keep this one short but i can provide more info if requested.

Basically, i run a server on Nvidia Shield and its constantly disconnecting saying either “server unavailable” or “unable to connect securely.” This can happen anywhere from a few times /day to 12 times /hour. It occurs on the server, local clients, and remote clients.

I don’t know if i need new certificates or different network settings but im at a complete loss for how to solve this issue. I would really appreciate some help/guidance and I can provide more info if necessary. Thank you for your time.

I’m having the same issue. Hadn’t used my nvidea shield in a while and I cannot get it to work the way it used to. Logging in via the web, I get:

app.plex.tv is unable to connect to “SHIELD Android TV” securely

Its “Secure connections” setting may be set to disabled, or you may need to adjust some settings on your network. You can [learn more about secure connections here](https://support.plex.tv/hc/en-us/articles/206225077-How-to-Use-Secure-Server-Connections).
