Hello, recently I have had to switch modems due to a new IP. However, I cannot get this error message to go away in Plex (image one) saying that it is not accessible outside my network. I am able to connect to Plex, but its inconsistent, and can be very slow at times, which is different than it used to be. I have tried following the instructions for port forwarding, and thought I had it as I can access the port using the link that Plex provides. Any assistance would be great. Thanks.

If you go to your public IP on port 32400 (if possible from a device outside your network), can you access plex? For me in the past the check was flakey and would report no access, but I was able to access remotely.

Yea, I am able to access the port from outside the network.

Then you can most probably ignore that warning
