Network problems, Unraid blocking ports

[Humi]

Can anyone help me with this? 

 

I'm trying to get the Plex server running.

It's like Unraid is blocking all ports. I've tried the following things:

 

Router with port forward + Switch

Router with port forward

No router and no switch

 

I got a Dell Poweredge R710 and it's the same with everything I try. 

If I do it with my other computer it works fine, no problems at all.

 

What can I do?

First step would be to post in the specific thread for the plex server you are using, there are several different authors, each with their own area for support.

Not sure it's a plex problem tho. It's the same for DC, Torrent etc.

I would suggest that you post up your diagnostics file.  From the GUI,    Tools   >>>>   Diagnostics   

 

IF you don't have GUI access, log on the console, login and type    diagnostics    at the command line prompt. That will write the diagnostics file in the   logs   folder/directory on the flash drive.  

 

The upload the file with your next post.

Maybe the router is forwarding ports for that other computer but not forwarding them for your unRAID server.

[Humi]

My server ip is .43 and that's what I port forward to. 

And it's the same problem without a router

Do you mean you can't get the software to run at all and you think it has something to do with ports?

[Humi]

Plex, DC, Torrent is all up. But is behind closed ports. 

I got no router, firewall etc. I think that Unraid is blocking the ports somehow, dunno how tho. 

 

So, everything is working except I can't connect to my server outside my network.

There is no device between your server and the internet???

[Humi]

No. I connect my server directly to the fiber modem. (And no the Fiber Modem can't block any port what so ever)

Your understanding of the network might be in error.

A typical user has a DSL/Cable/Fiber modem + router (may or may not be integrated with the modem device) + unRAID + other PCs/laptop/tablets/phone

if you claim that you only have a modem + unRAID - this means unRAID should be getting a public IP from ISP and be directly connected to the world (that's a really bad idea) - and you have PCs accessing unRAID internally - so your modem is a combo router 

So double check your modem/router settings for things like port forwarding so you can open the necessary ports.

 

You can mention your Fiber modem model so we can double check if what you think is correct or not.

I know that I'm correct, I got a pupblic IP on my server atm. So my problem is with unRAID and now with my ISP, Router, Modem, etc.

I do not connect to my server internally. 

 

Everything was working when I had Windows on my server.

If you have a public IP then you may be effectively DOS due to bots trying to break in.

If it was like that, I would not be able to get it to work with my other computer.

Which is it?

[Humi]

I got a public IP on my server, plex, dc, torrent etc do not work.

Change the cable to my computer got the same IP as on the server, plex, dc, torrent etc work.

uh.... not recommended. At. All.

 

if you want to see what ports are open, then use this: https://www.grc.com/shieldsup

It's not about being safe or not, it's about to get it to work.

This is using your other PC where things work? Cause you need to test a port which is being used by an app like Plex. (Don't have Plex so don't know the Port off hand)

Edit: windows blocks all ports by default unless you opened them in the fire wall settings.

port 32400 is default

unRAID doesn't come with a firewall.  This isn't an unRAID issue - it's got something to do with your configuration of unRAID networking, or the dockers/apps you're using.

Windows includes a firewall by default doesn't it?  (Not sure what version you were using)  What you're doing is a bad idea.  I can only echo what others are trying to tell you.
