I’m using the official Plex Inc docker and never had a problem with remote streaming until the last few weeks with recent updates.

I was noticing that some of my remote streams were at 2mbps when i have the quality set to 8mbps. It looks like its was doing an indirect play (through Relay i’m assuming).

When i went into the plex settings, sure enough there’s a big red ! next to remote access. When i click the Retry button next to the Manually Specified Port (i dont have that checked) everything goes back to normal and i see all green.

I haven’t changed anything network settings wise in a few years, its just worked. Any ideas?

Edit: May have been solved. I run a vpn setup through wireguard thats cooked into unraid. I do not have plex setup to use the vpn tunnel (only sab and qbittorrent) but i dissabled the vpn and BAM everythings green and back to normal. no idea why that would have changed anything. I have the plex docker set to Host.
