as of today I noticed I can’t access my plex server at all when on my work’s wifi. But if i swtich to 4g i can watch plex just fine. But obviously mobile data isn’t truly unlimited high speed. And yes I only watch shit on my break. I have remote access enabled etc. Not sure what I can do?
Update: turns out I’m an idiot and my HD bay was turned off hence why I couldn’t get into my plex/media. Now I can view it all just fine at work.
Download some stuff to your phone/tablet for “offline” viewing. Your work has decided to restrict you from doing non-work stuff on their network and that’s their right.
I think this is only allowed with plexpass but I’m not positive.
i should mention i have lifetime plexpass
Wow, $120 to be able to download your own shit… I’m glad I chose jellyfin.
I paid $80 one time years ago
Fair enough, it probably made sense at the time. Still, disappointing from Plex.
It was the only game in town for ages, and the one-time payment thing for a lifetime pass was taken advantage of by a ton of people, including myself.
Inb4 they drop support for “lifetime” in a couple of years and tell you to pay for a monthly subscription
That’s why I have Jellyfin configured alongside it at replicas=0 just waiting to be spun up
Then this is definitely your easiest and safest way to go: no new services to configure, no rolling the dice to see how upset the org will be about possible policy violations.
Correct
