Connectivity issues

What you need to do is go through all of the rules and make sure that no blocking ones were added.

Are you able to use the web browser on the server machine using the local network address rather than localhost?

The rules looks mostly correct as you are allowing all network type instead of just Private.

You could try deleting your existing Emby Server firewall rules and reauthorize them

Shutdown Emby
delete Emby firewall rules
Open your system.xml (C:\Users\aaron\AppData\Roaming\Emby-Server\programdata\config)
Change <IsPortAuthorized>true</IsPortAuthorized> to false and save
Launch Emby

Also have you restarted the machine?

Okay, I have restarted since the problem started, but I did as you mentioned:

Shutdown Emby
delete Emby firewall rules
Open your system.xml (C:\Users\aaron\AppData\Roaming\Emby-Server\programdata\config)
Change <IsPortAuthorized>true</IsPortAuthorized> to false and save
Launch Emby

Then I restarted again just to be safe, and now its working.

Whew, thank you all for your patience.

Thanks for the feedback. I wonder what the difference is between the old and new windows firewall rules.

You are correct, my emby server is 192.186.1.86.

When I tried the command prompt I got the following:

 

ok good - I know it's now solved (and emby config problem) but you should see your connections/devices appear in this list (as established).  It also proves that emby is 'listening' on the correct port.     Turning off your firewall would have made no difference, because it wasn't the issue - the emby config was that Happy identified above.  tbh, I was not aware that emby config in the xml even existed - so a useful post.  Enjoy !
