This guide creates a reverse SSH tunnel to route all Plex server traffic through it. In the instructions the output of starting the service replicates the successful output you should get if it worked and it did, but I am unable to access Plex via the VPS’s IP.#Routing plex traffic through an SSH tunnel If I type the IP following a colon and the port, I get constant “connection refused” errors in my web browsers.

I recently purchased a VPS in order to route the plex traffic through it and not Hetzer’s servers in order for the jitters and constant buffering to go away.
