No. I’ve spent hours googling my problem and trying every solution that popped up. The server is behind a router, and no amount of port forwarding and firewall permissions is getting past it for whatever reason.
There are a few things plugged in to that router that I’ve never had an issue accessing, but they just need basic Internet access as far as I understand
Are you on apartment internet by chance? You’ve probably got a double NAT. In which case you’ll need a server, outside the network, that can make a tunnel to your server.
Yeah I’ve been running Jellyfin for a year now and it’s amazing. The plugins automatically find metadata, cover art, and subtitles for me as soon as I upload them to my nas.
Jellyfin is going to explode in popularity (it kind of has already)
I did Jellyfin right when I got into this as soon as I saw Plex require an external account.
Same. The need for an account meant I never gave Plex a second glance.
I’d love it if it had native apps on popular devices, especially on samsung TV. There are ways to set it up, but it has issues
I would love to switch to jellyfin but I can’t get the fuckin thing to work. Same with Emby. Absolutely refuses to find the server.
You install it then go to http://IP:8096. That doesn’t work?

This isn’t a wireless router. Like the other guy said, it’s probably a NAT issue.

That’s a NAT issue. Are you able to reach anything else besides Jellyfin behind the router?

First-time setup is best done locally
