I’m running Windows 10 with Kodi 17.
I’ve configured Kodi to allow remote control on port 9891.
My router is configured to forward this port, and the Windows 10 firewall is off.
When I access Kodi internally using a local IP (192.168.2.14:9891) it works fine, as seen in the debug log below:

13:49:56.821 T:8432 INFO: JSONRPC Server: Disconnection detectedBut when I try to access Kodi from an external IP, it’s unable to connect, and there is no event in the debug log that suggests it is even trying to connect. I know I am using the correct external IP because I grabbed it from my router’s web interface. I also checked http://whatismyipaddress.com to be sure.
What am I missing here? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
