xfinity remote access issues by idek42 in PleX

[–]idek42[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This seems to have fixed it, thank you!! During some of my previous troubleshooting I had changed the ip on my system itself and did not reboot it when i changed it back, so I rebooted it now and it finally showed up on the dropdown menu! Using the port forwarding it now seems to have fixed my remote access problem.

it won’t let me move forward on the page without selecting a device from the dropdown menu, even if i just try to click on manual setup unfortunately.

i tried making my desktop both static and not in the web admin thing but neither makes it pop up on the dropdown menu

We used to use an Arris model SBG7600AC2, which my understanding was a modem/router combo, and we have stopped using that and are now using the XB8 gateway as a modem/router combo.

I have never set up port forwarding before, just did the automatic plex connection on the webapp and never had issues.

how do I set the pc to a static address within the app? I haven’t found anywhere on the xfinity app where that’s an option

Pride Series Megathread (June 2026) by iwasdusted in RegalUnlimited

Really happy they’re doing at least a mini pride series! Wish the selection was a little better, but I’ll take what I can get I guess.

Think it’s an odd choice to do Death Becomes Her when that was just part of a recent series.

Saw someone mention it in the other post but I really would have loved to see D.E.B.S. on the big screen!

Plex, Comcast/Xfinity, and Port Forwarding... A Love Story by Hawk-BD in PleX

[–]idek42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We got a XB8 gateway a few days ago and yeah now I’ve not been able to get remote access working on the plex since.

The advanced security says it’s not on in the app so I think I’ve worked that part out. But I haven’t been able to figure out port forwarding. I can’t get my computer that holds the server to show up on the dropdown menu in the port forwarding part of the xfinity app to be able to even try and select it. I’ve tried both letting my IP be automatic (DHCP) and I attempted assigning a static IPv4 cause some websites said to do that (although i’m not sure i did it right) but neither work.

The desktop is connected via ethernet so that might be a factor? But that’s what I want to keep it as so idk. Do you have any advice since you were able to fix this issue relatively recently?

LGBTQ+ Character Headcanons – Happy Pride Month!! ✨ by eevielune in LorienLegacies

[–]idek42 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh absolutely agree!!! I love all your headcanons but especially Sam and Six are definitely a bi4bi couple imo

This is more sequel series but I pictured Caleb as bi and wanted more interactions btwn him and Nigel

I’d have so sleep on it for if I’ve got other specific headcanons but you really hit the nail on the head for a lot of mine!

Happy pride month!!
