Can't connect from outside my network, nothing changed

Channels DVR Server Troubleshooting
#1

Nothing changed at my house, been working great for like 2 years. Suddenly I can't connect from outside my network. Ports are correct, firewalls, ip's, etc... literally nothing changed on my end, what I can see is that my URL seems to have changed.
It used to be:
https://XXXXXXXXXXXX.u.channelsdvr.net:8089/
...and now I can't get to that, but have to use this....
http://dvr-MYSERVERNAME.local:8089

...it's almost as though I don't have an account yet I'm paid in full... ?

...and if I try to use

that just times out trying to get to the first one...

Does portchecker.co show 8089 as open?

#3

Could be this temporary issue, that seems resolved now.

#4

I reported this hosed hours ago. Multiple attempts to connect will get a page saying oops, something went wrong and was reported.
One concern for me was that it could be fixed by a restart of my server, but if others have the same problem, something big broke.
Why do they make changes at the beginning of weekends and holidays? For maximum damage? Hmm.

#5

Ports are open, this forum isn't loading 1/2 the time, other times I get popups that I have to resume editing? I know this isn't on my end at this point I just hope it gets resolved.

#6

Is it working now?

#7

Yes, now my. channelsdvr.net forwards correctly to my instance and that seemed to be the issue.
