Title: Fixed: Can't figure out how to use Panel outside of home network
Post by: kwake on March 11, 2021, 10:00:48 am

Hi all, I've set port 52199 to port forward to the PC that is running Media Server, as well as created inbound and outbound rules in Windows Firewall for the same port.

Trying to hit the server from outside using my free no-ip dns address (configured to regularly update to match my current IP addy in my router) has so far been unsuccessful.

Other than port forwarding and creating firewall rules, is there anything else I'm missing to get this to work?

Thanks and regards,
Kwake

edit: While writing this, I just realized I set my port forwarding to Port 52999 and not 52199...going to check my Windows Firewall settings now...

Hi all, Panel works fine outside the network - just make sure the port you forward doesn't have a typo!

Cheers,
