Hello
I am in the process of finalizing my Plex setup on my Terramaster F4-223 NAS. I have set a local firewall rule with the IP range of 192.168.0.1 - 192.168.0.255 and allowed all ports so the devices on my network have access to the NAS.
I also need my Plex server on the NAS to be able to talk to the internet so it can pull down the metadata for shows I add to my Plex libraries.
I have tried using the rule of allow all Ip's with port 32400 selected , but when i tried to activate this rule before while having the local IP rule set up and active it crashed the firewall. Not sure if this is normal or not. Ever since I have been trying to come up with a solution to allow Plex internet access while also having the local rule active. My temporary solution is to turn off the local firewall rule when I need to move files into Plex Libraries so Plex can pull down the metadata then re-enable the local firewall rule. any help would be much appreciated
