    You have to port forward Plex in some fashion for it to work properly. If you don’t you are limited to 1 Mbps streams on their relay. That is lower bitrate than YouTube at 480p.

    If your router has UPnP then the port fowarding is automatic on both Jellyfin and Plex. It’s the exact same setup for both.





  • If pricing is a concern that shouldn’t rule out a VPS. Managed seedboxes are way more expensive than setting it up yourself for the same amount of storage/bandwidth.

    Go to lowendbox.com and/or use serverhunter.com to find a VPS that’s more in your price range. I currently pay $22/mo for 8TB of storage and 50 TB of bandwidth at 1Gbps.

    If you absolutely don’t want to use a VPS for some reason, then I had a very good experience with feralhosting. I used them for 3 years without issue. But 8TB with them is around $75/mo compared to the $22/mo I’m paying now.
