Synology has also had a version of Plex in beta for months in its Package Center, however I do not recommend using it because it’s already outdated, even if it’s in beta. Note: If you don’t add the WebSocket rules at STEP 4 screenshots 2 and 3, some plex services will not work as expected.Did you know that you can install the latest version of Plex for your Synology NAS device directly from the official Plex website? Not only that, but a Docker version for your Synology NAS is also available for Plex. Note: At STEP 4, instead of port 9005 you can use the port of your choice, but remember to port forward it (correctly) in your router following STEP 6. Note: You can use the same operation described above for all docker packages you have previously installed on your Synology NAS to access them via HTTPS/SSL. Note: If you don’t like to see port :9005 at the end of your link take a look at my new article HTTPS-SSL to Your Docker Containers Without Port at The End From now on you can access your Plex application over HTTPS from anywhere. Open your browser and type in :9005 and you will see the HTTPS / SSL certificate working correctly. Go back to STEP 1 or you will deal with karma 🙂 Follow the instructions in the image below. At the moment I am using a RT2600ac router.
Remember that every router has its own interface design. Select your NAS Local IP Address and port forward port 9005 both TCP/UDP.
Log into your router and go to the Port Forwarding area. Go to Control Panel / Security / Certificate and check if your link yourname.synologyme:9005 is visible. After that, add the following instructions:Ģ ( Screenshot 2) On Custom Header TAB click Create then WebSocket.ģ ( Screenshot 3) After you click WebSocket, the rules will be created automatically. Follow the instructions in the image below.ġ ( Screenshot 1) On General TAB set the Reverse Proxy Description and type in Plex. Go to Control Panel / Application Portal / Reverse Proxy. Note: If you already own a DDNS, skip this STEP.

Say you’re at a friend’s house and want to use Plex.
You don’t need to buy domains, you don’t need to look for information elsewhere because here you will find the easy way to do it. Have you already installed Plex using docker on your Synology NAS following my step by step guide? Do you want to log in via HTTPS using your custom domain name even when you are away from home? It’s simple and free.
