Plex with IpVanish

So I just signed up for a vpn and I’m wondering (haven’t tried it yet) how do I set up Plex to work while I’m connected to my vpn remotely? I have an uncle and grandpa who I share plex with and dont want to interrupt them when I’m on my vpn. Any suggested guides to port forwarding?

Port Forwarding should be set up on your router to give the best performance with Plex rather than using the relay, using a VPN with Plex unfortunately isn’t available with many VPN providers as they do not support port forwarding, I know with Express VPN you can set up tunneling per application but this will still only let you get remote access with no VPN on Plex :slight_smile: hope that makes sense, bit of a shame many providers dont support it!

Well for starters I’d get rid of ipvanish. They keep logs and are known to give them to authorities…

I was wondering a similar thing about UsenetServer’s VPN service. I’ve tried getting it working using an OpenVPN client but no luck…

It does make sense. Thanks for the quick response!

I’ve heard mixed things but mostly good about IPV. Their site also says no logs which I know they can lie like anyone can. Lol.
