iam currently trying to make a plex media server, ive been using windows 8.1 because that was the installation i had laying around. but now i think ive tried everything to make it working outside my network.
when i "connect" on the plex it shows:
so i guess it knows my server, and it knows my public ip and what ports to use, but still no internet? ive talked a friend and he said he sat the remote access port on the server, but i dont think i have that option on win8.
what ive tried:
port forwarding 32400
set up firewall to allow 32400
putting the server in a DMZ
any ideas?
The Problem was double NAT at my ISP :-)

So this is a classic question that I’ve seen many times before...
I’m trying to connect to my home network when not at home using a raspberry pi.
I’m well aware that the way to go with this is to use a vpn server such as OpenVPN.
However, in order to connect to the vpn I would need to forward a port on my router... which I can’t do.
I’ve found remote.it which allows remote connection to a computer (pi) without port forwarding.
What I would like to know is how would I set about using the 2 together, I.e. connecting to remote.it which in turn connects me to my vpn server?
I'm sorry to be finding this question just now, but in case it's still useful to you or to anyone else, here's what you need to do:
Install remote.it
Set-up a remote.it connection to use the protocol (TCP/UDP) and port required by the VPN application
Make a remote.it connection/adding the service to your network (remoteit - Desktop application UI terminology)
Use this connection info (URL/port or localhost:port) with the VPN client
Send an e-mail to support#remote.it if you need help
I would recommend ZeroTier(https://www.zerotier.com/). It haves its own linux client , and you can connect to as many networks as you would like.
You can also configure IP address from the website.
There is also an Android an IOS app that is really simple to connect.
Apparently Softlayer changed the VPN. So I've reinstalled my MotionPro client on Win10 and can now connect. But I can no longer connect to the 10 addresses beyond it. They don't show up in the netstat -rn listing.
I can ping the remote end of the VPN, but not the 10 addresses. What else do I need to do to make this happen?
Thanks.
No worries. It turned out the VPN entry point has changed, and when I use a different one it now gives me all the correct routing.
I bought a VPS for my game since I was developing and hosting it on my own network. I would simple do port forwarding between my router and my machine, making the config on the router's page. Now, I don't know how to do the same thing on the VPS (SSH). I read something about iptables but Idk if it is what I'm searching for. I just want to open an UDP port. There was Apache running fine and I stopped it. What commands should I use?
I was able to fix this problem. I just shouldn't do any port forwarding, and bind the socket on the public address.
I'm using Xampp server (Apache server ) for my website however it has some connectivity issues with the internet and I can't access it online. So I was advised that I must use Windows server 2008. Let me know if this is a good idea or not. The Xampp has issue with port forward through Dynamic IP. Let me know the best option that I have.
To connect your Apache webserver to the internet you don't need to do any local port-forwarding, you should try port-forwarding with your router. If you're runing linux, you should type ifconfig and look for your default gateway, that's the ip your router is using.
Some ISP's force you to use their own website to port-forward though. Standard, apache always runs on port 80, which you should allow in your firewall using the TCP protocol.
Perhaps you could explain your situation more, Windows Server won't make the hosting easier though. You will most likely encounter the same problems.
i am configuring voip server on centos 7 (google cloude) but some ports are blocked .
I disabled Firewall in centos
I added firewall rule to google networking.1
plz help m new to it.
You are doing it properly. Also, you can enable your Firewall in centos and just open the required ports.
To make sure that these ports are in fact open now and available to you, you should try running a small sample server on that port and try to access it from outside on that same port. If you can do so, then the networking part is done. Rest should be configured on your VOIP side.
