<![CDATA[This device is not allowed to access your mirror.]]>var config = { address: '0.0.0.0', port: 8080, ipwhitelist: [], . . . . . . . . . . . . . . { module: "MMM-Remote-Control", config: { position: 'right', apiKey: ' ' },

This is my config file but even If I whitelist every ip address I still can’t connect
“Thisdevice is not allowed to access your mirror.
Please check your config.js or config.js.sample to change this.”

Any ideas?

Pi 3b+ and mobile hotspot btw

The message the OP posted comes from server.js after checking the ipWhitelist config variable

Perhapes the config is missing the part I bolded here? :

modules: [

{
module: “MMM-Remote-Control”,
config: {
position: ‘right’,
apiKey: ’ ’

},
]

(Weather needs one)

ipWhitelist

not

ipwhitelist

Replacing the ‘0.0.0.0’ value with my Pi’s ip address makes no difference. I still get the same message.

Are you getting that on your mobile device trying to use the configuration app? Or is that on the mirror itself?

I would try replacing the '0.0.0.0' value with your Pi’s IP address.

What do you mean by “Is it using remote-control apis?”?
