arron1985 2 Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 Sorry for the late reply. Updated to 1.1.7 and so far so good. Thank you ever so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prydwyn 6 Posted May 29, 2022 Author Share Posted May 29, 2022 Sorry I haven't added much since starting the topic. I'm also updated to 1.17, but I still don't have any remote access. I'm now worried that I've screwed something in the settings trying to fix the problem when it first occurred. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyNelson 0 Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 (edited) I have had no issues with emby over the past couple of years, last few days I have not been able to connect remotely properly, I have to restart the server and it works for a few hours and then it just goes off again and I have to restart the server and I just keeping having to repeat the process which is really frustrating.  I tried uninstalling and installing port mapper and updating to the new one but still the issue persists.  I’ve never had to mess with port forwarding on my router!  I’m at a loss.  Checked my hard drives and I’m not low on disk space so not sure what I can try next text.txt Edited May 31, 2022 by AndyNelson Upload log file Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prydwyn 6 Posted June 8, 2022 Author Share Posted June 8, 2022 Ok, I have an update, which may be relevant in pinpointing the issue. I run a VPN (Windscribe) 24/7, in which I have EmbyServer.exe whitelisted. This has been fine for over a year (until the recent port mapper updates). The storms over southern England last weekend blew my router. I received my new one today, and had to set it up from scratch, so I manually configured the ports for Emby. I tried remote connecting, but it still didn't work. For some reason I turned off the VPN. Voila, I can now connect to Emby remotely. I removed Emby from the VPN whitelist, and then re-added it (restarting both the VPN and Emby after each change). And now I can't connect, despite Emby being whitelisted. There hasn't been a recent update to the VPN software, so I have to assume that there is something in the Port Mapper (or Emby itself) that doesn't like the VPN. Hopefully this may assist in locating the issue... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is most likely the issue with your VPN bypass:Â https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/issues/47267#issuecomment-764624449 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
