Re: [[Remote-Control] Shutdown](Configure and Update your MagicMirror)

Has anyone found a fix for the issue below? I tried hardcoding my raspberry pi IP address and creating a range of acceptable IP addresses but still not able to access the MagicMirror from my desktop or phone. Any advice?

hi
you must configure your config.js and maybe your interent router.

This is my adress for global access to the mm2 via internet browser

http://raspi-mm2.xxxxxxxxxxxxxx.myfritz.net:8116/

an this is a part of my configuration in my config .js

var config = {
        address: "0.0.0.0",
        port: 8116,
        ipWhitelist: [],

Port forward configuration for my router for global access

Anyone can help me please?
I tried everything but still cant get an access granted to my IP 192.168.254.107

@veejae addess: “localhost”, means listen ONLY inside (from myself)…

change to address: “0.0.0.0” (listen from anywhere)

Hi

I recently installed MM and am viewing on screen rather than on a mirror. I’m unable to view MM in a web browser from another machine in the network. I get

This site can’t be reached
192.168.0.113 refused to connect.

I’ve gone through this topic and tried the various suggestions including turning off IPv6. No joy.
No errors or connection refused messages in the pm2 logs. I’ve run config:check and it runs clean.

netstat -lnpt
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address           Foreign Address         State       PID/Program name 
tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:5900            0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN      -

I’m trying to access with http://192.168.0.113. Ssh to the pi is fine.
Any ideas?

Setting address: “0.0.0.0” has solved this.

really? this topic has 63k views, so it is litterally really annoying and problematic to a lot of people.
It is a website for a mirror, how hard do you want to make it to be set up? the website should be served to anybody who can access it. IT pros who need to secure it will be able to, without this trickery. this is bs.

@openPhiL
Well, suggest a better solution then. Maybe in a more constructive way.
Or just go ahead find something else.

Hi everybody,

I want to connect from the outside on my maggic. I configured the config.js file like this: ipWhitelist: [“127.0.0.1”, “:: ffff: 127.0.0.1”, “:: 1”, “0.0.0.0”], // Set [] to allow all IP addresses but I don’t have remote access.
Thank you for your help.
