So I have created a domain and have open the ports as well and did port forwarding. So when I click on the port 5055 link overseer works but when I try to access outside it says I’m offline. Not sure what to do

#

Did you make sure your port foward is correct?

barren yacht Jul 25, 2024, 5:18 PM

#

Yeah so my Ip address on the local machine and the port number

#

Is there a way I can share my screen or something so you could see what I did wrong

summer bough Jul 25, 2024, 5:18 PM

#

Maybe someone else can but I currently cannot

#

I would suggest you make sure you can access overseerr on another computer/device on your network by going to IP:5055

barren yacht Jul 25, 2024, 5:20 PM

#

So I am able to do that. I am connected to my WiFi on my phone for example. IP:5055 and it works

#

And I have a domain so that I can use it outside of my network

#

If my friends/family want to use it

#

But that domain doesn’t work and the Ip address

#

ok then you need to check your port forward on your router to make sure it is setup correctly.

Then try your EXTERNALIP:5055 on your phone via cellular

#

try without the domain you set up

#

if the external IP and port work then you need to make sure your dnamic DNS is being updated corectly with the external IP that you have

#

So it doesn’t work when I try to use my phone via cellular

#

#

But my computer works

#

Not sure what’s going on

barren yacht So it doesn’t work when I try to use my phone via cellular

why is the internal port 5054?

barren yacht Jul 25, 2024, 5:41 PM

#

What should I put the internal port because it won’t save

#

Without it

summer bough Jul 25, 2024, 5:42 PM

#

it would be the same that you use internally. So if your internal/wifi works with IP:5055 then that is what you have to use

#

secondly. not super important but its TCP only not TCP and UDP

barren yacht Jul 25, 2024, 5:43 PM

#

Okay did those

#

I’ll try again and see if it works

#

So my WiFi works

#

But outside it doesn’t

summer bough Jul 25, 2024, 5:45 PM

#

are you sure you are using your external IP?

#

it will not start with 192 typically

#

Do not show us your external IP

barren yacht Jul 25, 2024, 5:45 PM

#

How can I find my external Ip

summer bough Jul 25, 2024, 5:45 PM

#

this website should say what you IP is. https://whatismyipaddress.com/

#

make sure you go to it from your wifi first

barren yacht Jul 25, 2024, 5:47 PM

#

Okay so now I know what my external Ip address is

#

Do I have to port forward it? What should I do now?

#

Do I put it in overseerrr

summer bough Jul 25, 2024, 5:47 PM

#

on cellular try EXTERNALIP:5055

#

you should have already done the port forward.

#

Isnt that what you showed above?

#

That seemed correct to me

#

other than internal and external port needs to be 5055

barren yacht Jul 25, 2024, 5:49 PM

#

Okay it is working and no I did not port forward the external Ip address. I port forward my local Ip address

summer bough Jul 25, 2024, 5:49 PM

#

barren yacht Okay it is working and no I did not port forward the external Ip address. I por...

You should not port forward the extenral IP

barren yacht Jul 25, 2024, 5:49 PM

#

Okay so how do I put this in a domain

#

I have cloudflare

#

And I have the domain

summer bough Jul 25, 2024, 5:50 PM

#

the act of port forwarding is saying... Take this port from x computer and listen for traffic on my external IP on the port configured.

when you get traffic on your external IP on that port your router will know to forward it to your computer on the same port

summer bough Jul 25, 2024, 5:51 PM

#

barren yacht I have cloudflare

I think you can figure those things out now that you know that your external access is working

#

also cloudflare setup is prob not something we can help you with in this support channel unless someone else comes around that knows exactly what to do.

barren yacht Jul 25, 2024, 5:54 PM

#

So just asking how would you get the domain and traffic it through the Ip address

#

Like what guideline should I follow

#

What would you recommend

#

Something I could follow

junior oracle Jul 25, 2024, 7:39 PM

#

Google argo tunnel cloudflare, there are many tutorials on Youtube

#

Basically you setup a tunnel through cloudflare, and on cloudflares website you tell it that https://yourdomain.com is associated to localhost:5055 then when you access yourdomain.com it'll take you to port 5055 on your PC that you set the argo tunnel up on

#

Hey @junior oracle so I tried that

#

And it doesn’t work not sure what I’m doing wrong?

junior oracle Jul 26, 2024, 5:17 AM

#

I can see it works, I've accessed the website, though if you get rid of the subdomain "media" it'll work on instead at the moment it's working on

#

You can setup rules on cloudflare too, to disallow anyone from a certain country to access, just for added security, assuming no one outside of your country is going to be accessing your server
