Hi,

I have some problem with remote access with my VuZero (OpenPLI 7.3).

 

When I use OpenWebif on my own network at home - everything works fine. I have setup a password via telnet and changed port to 321 - so now If I am logged e.g. on my laptop to the same network as the STB and put http://router IP:321 it works all good.

 

However, when I want to access by STB from network other than the one to which STB is connected it does not work. Current steps that I have taken:

  • ordered public IP service from my ISP
  • forwarded port 321 (as on the screenshot below)

Does anyone have any idea why it might not been working remotely?

By default it is blocked in the Openwebif configuration, because it is very insecure. Use a VPN to your router (or NAS or the box itself) instead.


Currently in use: VU+ Duo 4K (2xFBC S2), VU+ Solo 4K (1xFBC S2), uClan Usytm 4K Ultimate (S2+T2), Octagon SF8008 (S2+T2), Zgemma H9.2H (S2+T2)

Due to my bad health, I will not be very active at times and may be slow to respond. I will not read the forum or PM on a regular basis.

Many answers to your question can be found in our new and improved wiki.

You need to allow all IP range to access your openwebif by default only local IP addresses are allowed.
But you should not do that, use a VPN to access it securely.

NO SUPPORT by PM, it is a forum make your question public so everybody can benefit from the question/answer.
