stratofarius 1 Posted July 5, 2015 Author Posted July 5, 2015 I really don't know. From what I understand the Samsung Web app and the Emby Samsung app both worked before port forwarding and now both no longer connect since turning on port forwarding. If the Web app doesn't connect then I doubt the Emby app will. Does the TV's Web app connect to the Internet at all, or just not to Emby server? Maybe try unplugging the TV and then going through the network setup after plugging it back in It does connect to the internet. I've gone through the network setup two times now, still the same results.

fuzzthekingoftrees 10 Posted July 5, 2015 Posted July 5, 2015 Your screenshot is a little tricky to read but it looks like the first octet of the IP address you're entering is 191, this is unlikely to be correct. Local IPs should start 192, 10 or 172 As to using your public IP, this will only work if your router supports double NATing of local requests. Packets to your public IP have to be sent to your router which then has to translate the source address to the public address and the public address to the destination. You're best off just using your local IP on the local network, unless you carry your TV around a lot.

As in open the app through the Smart Hub? That's how I've been doing it all this time. I can't find the factory reset option but I'll try that.

CBers 7450 Posted July 6, 2015 Posted July 6, 2015 In the menu on the TV, you can Reset Smart Hub. It's under Smart Features and is at the bottom of the list of options.
stratofarius 1 Posted July 7, 2015 Author Posted July 7, 2015 Asks for a password I'm 100% sure I don't have.
CBers 7450 Posted July 7, 2015 Posted July 7, 2015 (edited) Probably 0000, or 1234. Can't remember what the default is. . Edited July 7, 2015 by CBers
stratofarius 1 Posted July 15, 2015 Author Posted July 15, 2015 Okay, so. For some... unexplained reason that I will not try to figure out, I tried it today after a long trip and it just worked. Thanks for all the help anyway guys. 1
