Vodafone Mobile Broadband Remote Access

Plex Media Server Remote Access
1

Hi All,

I have Vodafone mobile broadband and they have informed me that port forwarding is not possible via 4G, with them at least. Can anyone suggest a workaround so I can get remote access?

Server Version#: Win 10 x64
Player Version#:

Bump.

Yeah, IPv4 will indeed be behind CG-NAT on those 4G connections, so no port forwarding. But if you have IPv6 (and Vodafone haven’t firewalled the ports) you can try that - at the moment IPv6 in Plex is a manual setup though: Ipv6 support for myplex - #269 by thornrag

Alternative is using a VPN - either a peer-to-peer one like Zerotier/Tailscale (which requires a client to run on both server and clients), or a centralized one where both the client and server connect to a central VPN server.
