Hello all, I just created an Emby account last night and synced all my movies to it. The problem I am having is that I cannot connect to the server from my phone or my desktop. I created the server on my laptop. I have looked through the forums for people who have encountered this problem before but I was not successful. I tried to create a port forwarding for the 8096 port on my netgear router but I still am unsuccessful on connecting to the server. I can connect and watch the movies I uploaded on the server from my laptop but on any other device, it wont let me connect. I even created a guest account and signed on to that on my laptop. I was able to watch a movie using that but when I log onto my desktop or phone, it will show the server but will not connect. It gives me the Connection Failure message. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Than you
