Are you at home on your LAN or are you away from home?
at home when I tried to log in via UI3.. and I tried using the Android with my phone with wifi turned off so I was using outside network
Yeah that wa som.eone else's thread. I set up the stunnel option you mentioned and pert checker shows 8080 open, but the problem in UI3 and android seems to be my login ID but not sure whyThe answers you seek are in my response to your post in the other thread...
Blue Iris Android App not showing past 1-2 days
So I am using my Samsung S21, using Blue Iris android app 3.0.35, Android version 11, One UI 3.1. Blue Iris 4.8.4.3 Disk 21%, Ram 47%, CPU 22% The problem is I get 1 day maybe 2 days of clips/alerts max when using the android app. Some times I only get 1 day When I pull up my computer and look...ipcamtalk.com
In the desktop version?
hmm... ok i was able to access UI3 login locally on LAN with new id... but trying to access on my phone via app...it just spins like its trying to connect but stops with no errors... also trying to access UI3 login via phone with external wan ip results in error that site cant be reached
I did I set up STUNNEL...You need to establish a secure way to access your network from outside of your local LAN.

The internet is a force of nature; no video surveillance system made was designed to be exposed to those forces.. NEVER FORWARD PORTS to your NVR or Cameras, doing such things not only exposes you to severe security problems, but everyone else on the internet too.. Hackers dont want your video...
yeah sorry this is all new to me...not a techy networking kind of guy..old and slow.. I was up all night just trying to setup what I have so far...You need to establish a secure way to access your network from outside of your local LAN.

yes thats the video I used to set it up. I found another video on STUNNEL and instead of creating a new entry in the STUNNEL.CONF file he edited one of the entries that was remarked out. I think I had spacing wrong or something in one of the lines for the Blue Iris entry because after editing it I can now access UI3 interface with my phone on external network. Still cant get the Android BI app to connect though for some reason... no error messages just the spinning circle then nothing
I have a gateway all in one Nokia BGW320 from ATT so no stand alone router. It sounds like STUNNEL is working correctly as I am able to access my Blue Iris server via the UI3 interface from outside my home network. But for some reason the android version of BI is unable to reach the server....
When you connect to UI3 from outside your home network, is the connection using "http://" or "https://"? You might have missed the dropdown box in the Blue Iris mobile app where you need to select this. Also maybe you did not enter the port number in the mobile app?
https:// is what I am using for UI3 ,
