Hey guys! Need some help setting up all my network settings.
My setup is a bit complicated because I sublet my apartment and can’t directly access the router that’s all the way upstairs so as a solution I have a wireless extender extending my network and I have the Ethernet connecting my server to the extender. Because of this, pretty much anything that needs a network to work on Unraid (everything lol) doesn’t work. The issues I have worked out (i could totally be wrong) are that it might be a port forwarding issue, or subnet issue. Unfortunately a powerline adapter isnt feasible right now either so I am sort of stuck with this extender solution.
I’d love if someone could help me to figure out exactly what setting to change on the router, then the extender, and then finally to the various apps on Unraid. I do also have all the login credentials for both the xfinity router/modem and my own extender so I can get on just fine. I just cant physically access the xfinity router.
- Plex: Remote Access Settings say 172.xx.x.x : 32400 <- Public 73.xxx.xxx.xx : X Internet
- Qbittorrent: As soon as I click webUI, I get the following: Unable to connect. Firefox can’t establish a connection to the server at 10.x.x.xxx:8080. And yes I get similar results on both Chrome and Safari as well.
- Remote Sharing: Going on my Mac, my server appears in the Locations sidebar with my server name, however, when I click it it either says: There was a problem connecting to the server "servername". This file server will not allow any additional users to log on.
Or if it does let me go, clicking on any folder brings up this: The operation can’t be completed because the original item for “foldername” can’t be found.
If people need screenshots, let me know what to take it of and what info to hide to protect myself. I am pretty new to Unraid and networking so i apologize if theres simple stuff i am missing or dont understand.
Thanks and let me know what other info I can provide!
