September 17, 2025Sep 17 I started messing around with the unraid connect plugin to configure remote access, and to generate an API key for nzb360. That all seems to be functioning, but I can no longer access the webui from a wired LAN connection. It works fine over wifi on either my phone or laptop, and it's resolving to [hash].myunraid.net when I type just the local IP into a browser. However when I try on my PC which is connected to the router via ethernet, the connection times out every time. I've tried both the FQDN LAN and WAN links, tried multiple browsers, typing in various combinations of http:// and https:// (SSL is set to strict which is required for remote access). Remote access on connect.unraid.net works as tested by my phone on 5G. The server is connected to the LAN/router through a powerline adapter, which I originally thought was the problem, but I tried using a direct ethernet connection as well and that didn't help.Router is a netgear CAX30 and does not have DNS rebinding enabled. I tested with my ISP, Cloudflare, and Google's DNS servers and none changed the behavior. I am using the "address reservation" function of the router to lock the server's local IP at 192.168.1.10 because without that, any time the server was disconnected or offline it would get assigned a new, different IP on boot. Also the nzb360 unraid feature can't connect even though I've followed the guide and generated an API key for it. tower-diagnostics-20250917-1559.zip
September 18, 2025Sep 18 Community Expert Try booting in safe mode and memtest, to make sure it's not related to Tailscale, if the same post new diags from safe mode.
September 18, 2025Sep 18 Author Ok I will give that a try. That being said I have tried it without tailscale enabled (uninstalled the plugin) and same result. I haven't tried safe mode to disable all plugins though.

A user in another forum post provided a way to test if DNS rebinding is enabled by pinging a non existent unraid.net page and observing which IP it resolves to and the results were as expected for DNS rebinding to not be enabled. I also don't get the warning message about it being enabled from unraid.Edit: this also wouldn't explain how the only variable between clients that I know of is the wired vs wireless connection.

September 27, 2025Sep 27 Author Update: The ability to access my server seems to go in and out. Still always works over wifi. But whether the LAN connection will work at this point seems up to random chance. It coincides with the Plex client on my PC being unable to reach the server as well.
