ipWhitelist HowTo
-
It looks like your raspberry pi started using IPv4 instead of IPv6. the
::ffff:before your ip shows that it’s trying to use a IPv6. That’s where"::ffff:10.0.0.1/120"was working. Seems like something changed though that it’s now using the IPv4 address.
So to cover all your bases, keep both"::ffff:10.0.0.1/120"and"10.0.0.1/24"in and you shouldn’t run into this problem again. -
@mochman Will do, thank you, no idea what changed the behavior. :) But at least I have a totally fresh install now! :)

Hi @mochman !! I can access from the same device where I run the MM, but can’t access from external devices (smartphone ie)
Any idea why?Kind regards

Is the smartphone on your wifi? If it is, just follow the steps to add your whole subnet.
If you’re trying to access it while using the phone’s network, that’s going to be harder. You’re going to have to configure your router to allow port forwarding to your pi, then figure out what your phones IP is. Then you could be safe and only allow that IP. The problem with that is when your IP changes, you’ll have to edit your whitelist again. You could try to add the class C or D subnet if you don’t want to worry too much about this, but you’ll be opening up your network to the internet in the process so good luck!

@mochman Yes, it is in the same network, also I’ve tried sharing internet from my smartphone, and nothing.
Which steps should I follow? -
Please follow the steps outlined at the top of this page. Let me know what you’re seeing when you do those steps.

@mochman It’s working! Thanks!
-
The default of [] doesn’t work at all for me. I’m happy to let all devices on my network access my mirror, how do I do this?
It’s not the simplest of features is it!
Hoping someone can help me here :/
-
@Mitchfarino Are you sure?, Can you show the config/config.js ?
There some logs when did you run and access it?
-
I’m just at work at the moment, so I’ll post my config when I get home.
When I leave it as it originally was in the config, the mirror loads but I can’t get MMM-RemoteControl to work as it gives me the permission error
Then when I replace it with [] it fails to load the mirror and tells me to create a config.js file
