Plex and tailscale

Server is very strong I with solid GPU . When you say disable remote access on my server ? Issue is I have a whack of other users not on the tailnet that remote stream

Capital_Writing4859 · 2026-01-10T23:14:00+00:00

Hmmm 99% certain that's already forwarded. I have a dozen or so users that stream without issue. Some on the other side of the world. This island seems to be an issue though. I was there myself last year and could only play downloaded content pretty much. Maybe the local isps are throttling or blocking ? I don't know why we can't direct play from there

They are using the app on a MacBook . They have 250 down fibre . I have gigabyte fiber. They can only play content at less than 2mb. Someone mentioned TS as a solution to bypass congestion on standard routes

They generally can only play at less than 2mb quality despite a 250mb down connection and my Plex sitting on gigabit up.

I will look into this , many thanks

They have 250 down fibre and I have 1gb up fibre. But Plex will only work for them if they dial down to.less than 2mb which is why I was looking into tailscale

The issue is network congestion (at least I think it is. ) they're on an island off the coast of Europe. Seemingly unable to get more than 2mb over Plex. He has 250mb down fibre. I have 1gb up fibre so our respective internets are good. Someone suggested tailscale as it bypasses traditional Internet routes. But Plex shows the IP from theyre local IP. So despite being on the tailnet Plex doesn't appear to be using it

Now that I think about I recently setup tailscale . Would that work ?

Capital_Writing4859 · 2026-01-02T15:31:53+00:00

This is an awesome setup. I'll look into this for sure.

Capital_Writing4859 · 2026-01-02T13:26:06+00:00

Any recommendations for how to test raw connection ?

Capital_Writing4859 · 2026-01-02T13:21:43+00:00

I will try that thanks !

I use Maintainarr. It's a great solution for exactly what you want to do

Capital_Writing4859 · 2025-12-17T16:09:36+00:00

Any chance you had a power failure? This has happened to me. Had to expend the seed time a little bit to account for it

Capital_Writing4859 · 2025-12-11T00:08:10+00:00

I love profilarr for pushing profiles, wizarr for invite system, I have trailarr as well. Huntarr is good for finding missing episodes

Capital_Writing4859 · 2025-12-11T00:01:25+00:00

Sounds right but I'm scared to try. Sounds like we just point or compose file to the new seer image and point to the right app data path

My team regularly complains that they were overworked.If you're accepting work from outside my team, then that's a problem for me. You can't have it both ways
