I have been using remote access for six years, now it’s not working. Using the remote access wizard, I get green checks to the “canyouseeme.org” page. Verified server is unreachable. I assume it’s my router but honestly have no clue. Any suggestions?

No changes. I actually have two providers. My router is set to share traffic 50/50. I have set it to one or other and same results.
No changes on my part. This started happening yesterday. I’ve gone through the basic trouble shooting I have in the past to make it work. Im just at a point above my skill level. I believe its router related since both connections have the same result.
Assuming local access to BI console OK, any recent Windows Update change your NIC's "network properties" from "Private" to "Public"?
Yes, internal access to Blue Iris is good. UI3 works great on the lan.
I have windows 11 pro updates disabled.
Still confirm as sometimes Windows does stupid things. Maybe it changed in a virus protection update.

I believe that it needs to be set to "Private" for the remote access to allow incoming connections!
Yep, that was it. It must have changed in a reset or something. It doesn't make sense (why it changed suddenly), but it works again.
I'm glad it wasn't my router. I hate that thing but its NDAA and TDA compliant so I'm kind of struck with it but would love to replace it, except the cost.
Glad that fixed it and also glad your router wasn't boogered (a technical term).
