        Works for me.

        I had my issues figuring out OpenVPN but eventually got it working. The problem was me coming in from DD-WRT where things are more complicated. pfSense OpenVPN is so easy to get working as a server that I needed to unlearn a lot and I was fairly stubborn about it.

        It should work. If you can access your network remotely using OpenVPN you should be able to access a Plex server.

        Just for fun, try using OpenPHT as your PC plex client. The full standard Plex program has issues I didn't care to research that OpenPHT does not have. Android Plex works fine enough for me to consider actually buying a license.
