        it still isnt working :( Here is my config now…

        var config = {
                port: 8080,
                ipWhitelist:   [],                                     // Set [] to allow all IP addresses
                            address:"0.0.0.0",                         // or add a specific IPv4 of 192.168.1.5 :
                                                                       // ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1", "::ffff:192.168.1.5"],
                                                                       // or IPv4 range of 192.168.3.0 --> 192.168.3.15 use CIDR format :
                                                                       // ["127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1", "::ffff:192.168.3.0/2$
        

        Any other ideas? I dont know why this is so hard :*(

          You tried with and without the address line?

          I know, it can be frustrating. Other people have had a similar problem. What I suggested to you has helped some of them. I’m sorry that it didn’t. Perhaps try searching the forum for Whitelist and see what you come up with. This one if just from the other day.

            I do thank you for your time, but that thread is someone with the exact same problem as me and the answer is the same one you posed here and it doesnt work.

            Why does it seem only a few people are having this issue?

              I really can’t say why it happens to some and not others. It’s hard to troubleshoot for someone when there are so many unknowns. There are so many different setups (various Pi’s, PC’s, Mac’s, etc) all running different OS’s (various Raspbian flavors, various Windows versions, Mac OS, various uBuntu versions). This make’s it impossible for “one fix fits all” solutions. Personally, I do the best I can to help people that ask for help. There are many Whitelist topics that have been posted. I can only suggest that you use the search function here on the forum. In the meantime, someone else may have a suggestion that might work for you.

              Best of luck to you

                  Not my area, but I was reading this: https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/1326/ipwhitelist-howto/8
                  and it mentions that the whitelisting on a range is for IPv6 , so maybe not working with IPv4.
                  Hope that help

                      FOUND A WAY TO RESOLVE THIS!

                      Add

                      cat /etc/modprobe.d/ipv6.conf 
                      # Don't load ipv6 by default
                      alias net-pf-10 off
                      # uncommented
                      alias ipv6 off
                      # added
                      options ipv6 disable_ipv6=1
                      # this is needed for not loading ipv6 driver 
                      blacklist ipv6
                      

                      to turn off all IPv6 on the Raspi.
                      Than edit all the IPv6 out of your config file.

                       },
                              ipWhitelist: [
                                      "192.168.0.92",
                                      "192.168.0.1/24",
                                      "127.0.0.1"
                      
                      

                      I still have the .92 in there from testing. It is not needed.

                      did a sudo reboot just for safe measure and now it all seems to be working as intended. No real idea what the actual issue was…but it is resolved. FINALLY! :)

                        I just realized something. The machine I’m working on had MM 2.1.1 on it. I upgraded to MM 2.1.2 and lo and behold, the IPWhitelist is as whacked as can be. So, if I gave bad information, which I did, please excuse my oversight.
                        Peace!
