      @motdog If you open up a port for outside access of MM you’ll have to whitelist all IP’s since your phone changes IP. You will then expose it for everyone. This includes the config.js file, which might contain passwords to calendars etc. So be careful! Best option is to connect to your network using VPN. It is possible to setup a VPN server in some routers.

        @retroflex he will still have to whitelist everything, or use Listen: 0.0.0.0

            So I still get access denied, but if i change

            ipWhitelist to [] then my phone can now access the remote page.

            Just dont understand when I have address the correct ip for my phone it says access denied to that same ip in the terminal

            Changed:

            ipWhitelist: [ "127.0.0.1", "::ffff:127.0.0.1", "::1", "::ffff:10.100.10.1",],
            

            To:

            ipWhitelist: []

              Hello,

              I know the topic is old, but may someone can help me.

              The module is shown on my screen but when I want to enter via Browser it always shows: This site cant be reached.

              alt text

              when erase the // from the config: The screen shows me an error, I should install a config data.

              Can someone help me?

              Thanks

                  I see you have:

                      adresss: “0.0.0.0”,  
                  

                  It should be:

                       address: “0.0.0.0”,  
                  

                  Just a user helping another user
