      @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

                          @Mr-Gysy so, steps to debug

                          from another system can u access the mirror itself
                          http://ip:port
                          if no, then either firewall, or mirror config prevents.
                          address: or whitelist or both

                          if address is localhost, then ONLY apps on the SAME PHYSICAL system can access
                          if address is 0.0.0.0, then apps can access from any network connection
                          if address is something else, some specific ip, then apps can only access server thru the hardware adapter that provdes that address. think if u had two network cards, and wanted to restrict access to only one of those cards…

                          now, once you’ve got that
                          we go to whitelist
                          now you can constrain access to specific systems on that netwokr, or groups of systems by address range (or applied mask)

                          so, to start I’d do address: “0.0.0.0” and whitelist :[],
                          means any system from any network

                          can u access the mirror app

                          now can u access the remotecontrol app insde the mirror?

                              @Mr-Gysy said in [MMM-Remote-Control] Can not access remote control module:

                              192.168.178.40

                              need the port too

                              http://192.168.178.40:8080 (thats the default port)
