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

What is the specfic method to Port forward or tunnel Emby on windows 10 to remote access when I do not have acces to my router or ability for static ip address.

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

Hi; I'm using the ubuntu kodi plugin under mint18 desktop. server has 3 gig ram ,2 drives , amd dual core. htpc and my desktop are what i'm trying to connect to it . I setup via ddwrt static dhcp ips for the server ,desktop,htpc. besides having to remote into the server and start via term due to my not being able to auto run it(lack of know how) it runs well, I killed info /thumbnail download due to my cap. added media etc(was on 2nd 1tb hd). but i can't add/view media in kodi on desktop with firewall on. I've added these rulles 8096/8920/tcp allow in ip of server 8096 allow out ip of desktop 8920 out 8920,8096/tcp allow in ip of desktop 8096/udp allow out ip of desktop 8920/udp out this is on the desktop pc no firewall running on media server. with firewall on can't connect message . without seems ok. any help would be great i'd love to firewall the media server as well. it's a mint 18 desktop with gui and running team viewer to control for now.
