You can't use port forwarding with Docker because it's already handling that for you.

I know I'm not good enough at this to set it up myself. We have an Amplify HD router. My goal is to let family access Plex from anywhere, but I can't even get the right port open. On Windows 11 Pro with ESET and Private Internet Access, I tried forwarding port 35600 in the router settings and nothing worked. Even though I enabled it through ESET, yougetsignal, and portchecker all say the port is closed. I use PIA often but turned it off just to try this. Basically, I need my VPN running so Plex can reach me from the outside world. I set up a split tunnel with PIA so Plex bypasses the VPN. The only thing left is opening the right IP address when forwarding in the router. I tried using the public IP on the router, the WAN IP, the private IP from my network settings, and none of those worked. Any help?
Check if your public IP is set on the Amplify router. Make sure the IP shown for the WAN matches what's at https://whatsmyip.com/.
