My ISP is currently having an outage. My Fire TV app manages to see the server and stream content, but my Xbox and Android apps don’t.

I also cannot use the web interface to manage my library without internet right now either. The webpage just says “Can’t reach Plex right now” What’s up with that? Is there a workaround for this and the app functionality without internet? I set a manual server on the Xbox but no love there

Point of clarification, I was trying to access it directly from my server at 127.0.0.1:32400

use [http://127.0.0.1:32400/web/index.html](http://127.0.0.1:32400/web/index.html) in the space there’s normally a web address

_ **note this only works on the PC for admin** _

Sorry, I should have clarified. I WAS using that address. Directly on the server.

Hmm, that’s definitely odd… I have access to mine when my net goes down, what browser? (I use chrome)

Very strange, someone reported this the other night too… I even tested by shutting off my router so that I had no net connection, and re-opened a plex session… it worked without a hitch…

May want to submit as a possible bug report, because it should work using the localhost address
