I have been turning my head sideways trying to get this setup to work and was hoping that I could reach out to the community to get some help.
I had this working when I my isp provided a static ip address. They recently changed it over to dynamic. I set up an address reservation in netgear genie software (router) to attempt creation of a static ip address. I am using mcafee antivirus software and already have the port forwarding set up in a way that was working with the initial static ip.
I am using canyouseeme.org to test the port as well as plex.tv as plex is my ultimate goal here.
I have also attempted to completely disable firewall to isolate the issue and I am still unable to access with firewall completely disabled. I believe this eliminates mcafee as the problem and directs it towards my router. I also contacted isp and made sure they bridged the new modem as I read that is also an area of potential conflict.
Any suggestions on what to test next? Thanks in advance.
