Because of where I live I am currently forced to use starlink to get reliable internet access. The downside of this is that it uses ipv6 and that the router inherently has no ability to do any kind of port forwarding. Here is the research that I currently done on trying to get my server back on the network and available for remote viewing. Recommended Cloudflare Settings - And face value this one seemed promising but from everything I've read in the post itself it seems that this is no longer an option. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Emby + Domain Name? - This is another one I was looking at although I'm not exactly sure if this is going to help either. Mainly being because it still requires ports of which my understanding is still the starlink writer would not be able to do. Emby not working with starlink - This is one I actually did do. I purchased a private internet access VPN with a dedicated IP address and set up the port forwarding. This option worked for about three or four hours. And then it just kind of crapped out. It seems that the port changed at some point during the night. And now I can't get it back up and running again. Anytime I update the port number and then try to log into the server, remotely, it simply says that the server took too long to respond. And quite honestly this isn't tenable if this is the way it's going to perform by changing the port number every once in awhile. Going back to the topic of IPv6 I do actually have a router that has the ability to turn on IPv6 settings. Although I'm unsure if this is going to fix my issue. Currently the starlink router is in bypass mode and an external router is plugged into it. Is this also an option that I can use? I'm not exactly versed in ipv6 as I'm currently really just learning about it. If this is an option please tell me. The other bit of research that I've done is looking into cloudflare's zero trust tunnel. Once more I'm not exactly versed in this and I'm unsure if this will actually even help me in my endeavor of getting my server back on the network. With that all being said what exactly are my options on my end goal. I'm not adverse of spending a little money here and there to try to get back on the network but I'm not wanting to spend a bunch of money on it. Any help would greatly be appreciated. And please dispel any of my misconceptions. I truly am an apprentice whenever it comes to this I'm not a master.

Hello, I have Emby Premiere, and I have issues with remotely connecting to my server. I've tested this with my more tech-savvy brother, but no luck so far. We tried everything, which is why I'm finally giving in and opening a thread about it in the hopes of someone helping me out. I've read other threads about this, and the one most closely resembling my case is this one. However, the solution of that case does not look to be relevant in my case because I have no such "VOIP box OOMA". The issue is likely with port forwarding and not with Emby itself because I get an Error if I check the ports on https://www.canyouseeme.org, but I don't know where to start. I will give as much info as I can. My setup is like this: Emby server running on my PC > Ethernet cable to a simple 5 port switch > Ethernet cable to my Router > Ethernet cable to my ISP modem I have opened ports 8096 and 8920 on my Windows Firewall in both the Inbound Rules and Outbound Rules. These are my Outbound Rules: These are my Inbound Rules: I have also port forwarded both the 8096 and 8920 ports on my Router and ISP modem. The "Allow remote connections to this Emby Server." setting is ticked on. So what gives? Any ideas are really welcome

Hi all, I have a router running latest Advanced tomato firmware and PIA VPN running on it. I would like to run a script to enable Port Forwarding to the Port PIA provides me so I can access the Emby server remotely. However after searching the internet I am still no clearer on how to achieve this. Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks
