Why is PLEX trying to access a non existant IP?

Server Version#:1.24.2.4973-2b1b51db9-x86_64_DSM7
Player Version#: 1.33.0.2444-a220eae4

Plex streaming my movies had constant hesitation and also trying to edit movie info (ie, correct the name, date or poster was VERY slow to load the edit window. I was trying to find out why and noticed the log errors. I un-installed and re-installed the plex player with no affect and then un-installed/reinstalled the plex server and that took care of the lag but it is still getting the error’s.

How do I stop it from trying to access the IP’s? 250 does not exist on my LAN and IP .7 is a range extender.

Repeating errors;

Full logs ZIP please?

It’s not possible to diagnose from a snippet but it looks like you have a noisy LAN and a device advertising itself as a server at 192.168.250.1:1990

PS: I have retagged the thread for you so it’s in the Synology forum.

Thanks for your response. 2 logs uploaded for your review. Plex is not giving the same errors today but the video lag/hesitation is back and generating dif errors.
