RAXE500 port forwarding problem
Greetings, I've seen community messages about accessing PLEX media server via port 32400 but they are years old and much earlier routers. My access to my PLEX media server on my LAN stopped yesterda...
Thanks for your help. This is now solved. Turned out not to be a problem with Netgear port access. I had to completely remove Plex media server app and all ts folders from the NAS. I have reinstalled the media server app and I am now rebuilding the libraries. A process that will probably take 24 hours or more. I'm guessing a file or setting corruption somewhere as a result of the electricity problems.

Stinks when that happens. If you're big into plex, upgrading to a half decent windows PC with built in GPU or even iGPU makes a big difference. I initially ran it on a router, then a NAS, and moved it to a server and its made a huge difference in performance/capability. I picked one up off the local marketplace cheap. Set it up without a monitor and just remotely manage it. I stuck a nvidia 1060 just for transcoding it it because it was an AMD system but if you get one with intel quicksync, it can do quite a bit of transcoding.
