MMM Remote Control Error
-
ipWhitelist: [“127.0.0.1”, “::ffff:127.0.0.1”, “::1”, “::ffff:192.168.0.182”, “::ffff:192.168.0.171”],
the ipWHiteList controls which external machines can access the mirror
127.0.0.1 is only the mirror machine
and then u have two mangled ipV6 addresses
I would just start with anyone can access
ipWhitelist: [] -
I keep getting this error now: This device is not allowed to access your mirror.
Please check your config.js or config.js.sample to change this.I do see “http://ip-of-your-mirror:8080/remote.html” though. so definitely progress.

FWIW, in the future,
Open a terminal
Type cd MagicMirror and press Enter
Now you’re in the MagicMirror directory
Type npm run config:check and press Enter
MagicMirror will now check your config -
will do! thank you so much for the help guys!
