Web client working on server computer, not connecting elsewhere

[yougottabekind]

Apologies, I'm a bit of a newbie.

My server is setup on a windows PC I access remotely. It previously worked great. 

When I go to the player on the PC in a web browser, it connects fine. I can access all my files like normal.

When I go to the web player from another device, like from another computer, via localhost:8096, it won't connect. 

http://192.168.4.39:8096/web/index.html#!/video is unreachable.

I have the latest version of the server downloaded, and windows firewall set up to allow Jellyfin. 

Any ideas?

Much appreciated!

If Jellyfin is running on the same computer you have the browser open on, "localhost" is valid. But if you are on another PC, that won't work since "localhost" is the loopback address. Meaning it is a reference to itself. It is not an actual host name.

You need to use the LAN IP of the server when on another PC. http://192.68.XX.XX:8096 or whatever your LAN IP actually is.
