Do you have more than one router in your network? Did you, if it is needed, create a forwarding rule in your router so that any request for the port you chose for Ombi is routed internally to the machine running Ombi? This is a required step for your external IP address to work.

How does jellyfish remote access work?
Jellyfish Remote Access is a service that allows you to connect your Jellyfish to the internet, and then access it remotely through the Connect App as if you were in your office. All of your shares and file paths will remain the same, the only difference will be the speed and latency since you’re connected over the internet instead of a direct 10GbE connection like you’re used to. We’ve seen great results with nearly perfect playback for some users, while others will need to download files locally or work with proxy media. It all depends on your internet speeds.
What is the technology behind Jellyfish Remote Access?
The technology is a network virtualization platform very similar to VPN. It is a peer-to-peer secure and encrypted connection.

We will join your Jellyfish to this network and also provide you with an IP address you will be using to access your Jellyfish remotely.
What kind of work can be done remotely?
