I want to share my server with my neighbor. I can see my server on her Roku TV through Emby Connect but when I select it, I get an endless white spinning wheel that never connects. My server is running through Wi-Fi and her Roku TV is connected via Ethernet. Attached is the log file.

Thank you for any help you can provide.

I'm trying  to connect under my login as being the administrator of the Emby Premiere server .

Have you configured your network and Emby Server for external connections?

External Connections

Yes. Allow remote connections to this Emby Server and Enable automatic port mapping are both enabled.

Did you setup port forwarding in your router?

Posted

Can't say for sure. I've been trying to log into the router and it never connects. There are no issues with the LAN, just connecting from my neighbor's Emby Connect Roku app.

I was able to get into my router and believe I have successfully setup port forwarding. Waiting for Dynamic DNS Service.

Can you please show us how you configured it? Thanks

The port is showing as open and now the server can be accessed from my neighbor's Roku TV. Port forwarding was the issue. Thank you!
