Thanks for the reply. I don't have a R9000, I have the R8000. It is connected to an access point but I don't think that's a problem.

The r8000 doesn't have a built in plex server.
So what's running as your plex server?
What is it connected to?
what modem/gateway is the r8000 connected to?

Sorry, I have a server that I'm running Plex server on with the OS Ubuntu. And it's plugged into a switch (not access point) that's connected to the R8000. It was pulled into a switch where it was configured before I brought it home and had remote access . When I brought it home the remote access is not available port 32400. Thanks for having patience with me.
