Dear Gurus
I’m stuck with a problem that I’m desperate to get some help on from you smart folks. Disclaimer: I made a FreeNas server a couple of years ago following instructions all over the web and run basically a Plex media server that has been running FINE for the last 2 years. I very (VERY) little as you will see shortly so please indulge me and I most appreciate your patience.
System
And the new PMS
Here's the router interface showing that both Plex servers are automatically configured to allow outside access
Here are a few screenshots of the FreeNas interface
Both plug-ins are "on"
Both JAILS are 'running' but the new server jail IP is different
Old PMS jail config - the /24 (255.255.255.0) is not present in the new PMS jail config and I can't remove or change it
I'm sure it's obvious I am pretty clueless. I appreciate any suggestions and thoughts. I had this server running fine for 2 years until I changed the router which is quite painful. I have thought of just moving to the new Plex server installation but means I'll have to do all the configuration again and it will have to download all the posters and other metadata again
Thanks in advance

System
- FreeNAS-9.10.2-U6
- Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-6400 CPU @ 2.70GHz
- The server has 2 ethernet ports and have ALWAYS been connected with 2 ethernet cables to the router (don't ask me why)
- So - I've always been able to access the FreeNas web GUI using 192.168.0.104 and 192.168.0.105. I don’t know if this is relevant
- Plex is accessible locally but not to the outside
- Plex will NOT download any new metadata (was doing it perfectly before all this). Seems like it’s not able to access the internet because even when I paste a URL for a poster it fails to download it
- I set up a NEW Plex server on the same FreeNas box and it IS accessible remotely. So the server seems to work but just not with the old installation
