Server Version#: 1.18.7.2434
All Local wifi devices on my home network will not play media from my plex server. If the device connects with ethernet connection, it plays without issues. I have taken a roku and tried with wifi and ethernet and wifi still doesn’t work, while ethernet works without issues. My phone won’t play media, my laptop, Amazon Fire TV, IOS phone, Android phone, I believe I’ve tried all the devices I could with wifi and they all produce the same results. If I set up a guest network on my router to force wifi devices to access the plex server via internet, it will play without any issues. The down side of this is that the guest network on my router works in a way where if it disconnects and reconnects it forces you to open a web browser and put in the password each time. So my question is this: is there a way to force devices to connect to plex with internet only?
Seems like that’s the only way I can get wifi devices to play media. Otherwise it plays and then buffers ever few seconds or doesn’t play at all. I’ve tried everything from changing the quality of the video from max to bare minimum, turning off and on direct play and direct stream in every possible combination. I don’t know what else to do.
