Unable to connect to server with Local Clients - RandomGuyBert124 - 2024-10-05

I need help setting up my Jellyfin server so I can connect to it from client apps. I'm unable to connect to it outside of the server on my computer. That includes through the internet on other devices, through amazon tv applications and the Jellyfin app on Android. I've attached some screenshots of the network configuration for my server.
I'm on PopOS 22.04 LTS
Here is the log file from my server:

Did you open port 8096 in the host firewall?

Code:
sudo ufw status
sudo ufw enable  # if it isn't already enabled
sudo ufw allow 8096

Yes I have and I just confirmed again that the port is allowed in ufw

Turn off automatic port mapping. I don't think that is the problem, but I don't recommend relying on uPnP for port forwarding.

And what address are you typing when trying to connect from other PCs and devices?


RE: Unable to connect to server with Local Clients - RandomGuyBert124 - 2024-10-05

Alright, I've gone ahead and turned that off.

The address is 192.168.1.125:8096.

I haven't set up a static IP address for the server yet, I was trying to get other devices on the same network to be able to connect before trying to set that up.

How is the server connected your router? If via WiFi, do you have AP isolation turned on in your router's config?

It's connected via a Powerline ethernet adapter.

Can you try disabling tailscale?


RE: Unable to connect to server with Local Clients - RandomGuyBert124 - 2024-10-05

I'm not running tailscale or any vpn like wireguard that would make it so I could connect to Jellyfin outside of my home network
