remote connection doesnt work, seems a common issue!

[Dad1607 0]

trying to work out the problem with remote connection to the server.

internally, i can connect and view my media on any device.

externally, i cannot connect, message = unable to reach .... (its the same picture i have found on every thread ive read with this issue)

i thought maybe it was the VPN, i removed said vpn to test the theory, i can rule that out as i get same issue, i have tried with several devices, so i can again rule out one device, i cant rule out the pc that i have emby setup on, though i have plex and have no issue remotely with that.

short of throwing my toys out the pram and uninstalling, does anyone have any idea? ive searched the web, but no answers.

Which of the troubleshooting steps that you found in those threads did you try?

If you have plex working maybe it's just a question of opening/port forwarding the specific Emby ports? Ask AI about how to test if specific ports are open.
