If you are talking about your PUBLIC IP address being dynamic, that would require you acquire a DDNS domain name. Which is free from a lot of providers. Most people use DuckDNS.
You'd install their client on the server and when it detects that your public IP changes it will push an update.
I have entered those details into the Port Forwarding section and rebooted the router.
I have disabled Wi-Fi on my phone (to simulate being away) and when I open the Jellyfin app, it asks for an IP address.
I know I cannot enter the local IP address of the machine Jellyfin sits on (192.168.7.1).
What do I enter there?
I tried entering what shows as the public IPv4 address that I found by running on www.whatismyip.com on the Jellyfin machine into the app (plus adding :8096) but no connection.
