Koyta 1 Posted April 5, 2021 Posted April 5, 2021 Hello, I would like to start with I am very happy with Emby, thank you for all your guys work. I have been able to add Emby Connect Accounts previously no issues. However now when I try to add accounts I receive an error: " There was an error performing the requested operation. Your server is unable to contact our Emby Connect Server at https://connect.emby.media. Please ensure your server has an active internet connection and that the communications are being allowed by any firewall or security software you have installed. " I have opened both ports 8096 & 8920 on both my router/windows firewall. Via canyouseeme.org with port 8096, I get a success. I can see you. Remote connections for previous accounts works fine. I have noticed that my emby dashboard for WAN shows a different IP than my local ip for the server? Disabling windows firewall did nothing. I currently have it re-enabled. I looked through the Connectivity Wiki/Github and had no luck. I also looked through old posts with similar issues. Was not able to resolve it. Any help is greatly appreiated. Thank you! My server log is attached. embyserver.txt
Solution Koyta 1 Posted April 5, 2021 Author Solution Posted April 5, 2021 I disabled my VPN, and then was able to add the account. Not sure why my VPN was blocking outbound connections...
