It sounds like more and more people are getting stuck with PLEX not being remotely accessible due to Carrier Grade NAT, with more and more ISP’s turning to it. Depending on the system you use there might be a workaround here or there, but some setups seem pretty impossible to get working. On top of that I’m sure there are many who, while they may have systems where a workaround is possible, they simply don’t have the know-how to make it work.

I feel like the guys and gals at PLEX are a pretty resourceful bunch and I’m sure devoting a little time to this problem would yield successful results, and like I say it’s something that’s only going to be greater in demand as time goes on.

I myself run PLEX off a QNAP NAS, and the only way I might be able to get accessible externally is by somehow installing and using ngrok, but doing so in the QNAP OS environment is no easy feat (at least not for me thus far).

If there’s something out there already which sounds like it will work when set up correctly, surely this means that something should be possible to be built in to PLEX?
