Hi guys! I'm having a small problem which I think will be quick work for anyone browsing this section of the forum.
I recently moved, and the new location had a modem/router hybrid device known as Motorola NVG510. I configured it following this ( https://forums.att.com/t5/Third-Party-Devices/Using-your-own-router-with-the-Motorola-NVG510-it-absolutely/td-p/3434307 ) tutorial, and I've managed to get everything functional with my D-Link DIR890l router. I've forwarded the relevant ports (via DIR890l) to remotely access my Plex server, and the server claims "Fully accessible outside your network," but I cannot seem to connect when entering my public IP and the correct port/etc.
TL;DR My router is connecting to the internet through another router/modem hybrid device, and I cannot connect to my local server using an external IP.
