Can't connect to devices on the same network on Jellyfin

Just switched from Plex... but might be going back lol. Http:/localhost :8097 works on my PC where my JF server is hosted. But I can't connect on any other devices on the same network. What I have tried:

  • enabled private connections in Windows Defender. Then tried public too.

  • went to settings and binded address to 0.0.0.0

  • changed my port from 8096 to 8097 just to see if a different port would work.

  • Made an inbound rule for port 8097 in advanced firewall settings.

Not sure what's going on here. On Plex it was easy to discover other devices on the same network. I have JF localhost connected to my Cloudflare Tunnel and I have access on all of my devices that way... but I rather just use my internal ip when I'm at home. Any help?

UPDATE: Literally been at this for hours, and as soon as I post the question on Lemmy...I figured it out. 🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️

On Windows, I had to go to settings > networks and internet > and select private network. Don't know how it was on public. Smh. I'll leave this here just in case anyone else has the same issue.

Try through the browser first as suggested by someone else. If you are running the Docker container, check you port mappings.
