General Discussion / PLEX server indirect/remote
December 19, 2024, 01:56:00 PM
so i have a mini PC running proxmox, ubuntu VM with docker running plex in a container, network mode is bridge on the container. i cant get plex on my local devices to show as direct and as such playing anything is chewing up my bandwith as its all going out to their relay servers.

i know very little about docker and pretty much used a compose file off github. i had plex running on my synology NAS (app) not container, up until now and it was working fine.

docker subnet - 172.28.10.0
LAN subnet - 28.28.28.0
docker pc - 28.28.28.48

looking online/reddit i saw some posts about setting up a static route between the two subnets and in my mind it does seem like a routing issue, i just need them to be able to see eachother.

i have played around with the static route page, set up a gateway for the docker subnet and set up a route. this actaully allows me to open the containers on my main PC using the docker PC IP and the containers port so im getting somewhere or nowhere i really dont know.

i feel like there is a simple solution to this as many people run plex in a container with no issues.

any suggestions would be very apprecitated as im running out of reddit posts to help me
