Appears to be Hetzner for now, wouldn’t be surprised if all VPS get affected eventually.
No I believe upnp took care of that in some form, Plex sets it up.
That’s still port forwarding. It’s just automated.
A well-configured network that follows security best practices should always have UPnP disabled.
Well, not sure if I have that then.
Jellyfin also supports UPnP, but you really shouldn’t be exposing the raw ports to the public anyways.
Ideally, you’d setup Jellyfin and a reverse proxy like SWAG that handles the SSL stuff for you.
Thanks, I just realized what community I was in lol. Stumbled in here from the everything tab, so now I understand the technical stuff!
I’ll stick around here a while you’ll have me!
Welcome! Consider a VPN if you need remote access, unless you plan to share it publicly with a lot of people. It’s a bit more work, but safer than directly exposing your PC to the internet.
Thanks! I actually already have a PIA subscription that I use frequently
In this case, it would be a VPN hosted on your home server/router or a VPS. A commercial VPN wouldn’t help you here, although you can use it in combination.
Haha, welcome! Always good to have new people come in and potentially start their self-hosting journey. It can be quite fun if you have the time and interest.
