Take a look at the Plex wiki page.

Sorry but I'm still stuck I worked thru the wiki

After install the Plex server still needs to be configured and logged into a Plex.tv account. Before the Plex server has been named properly, going to //PlexMS.Amahi.Net from your LAN will bring you to a Plex.tv login then redirect you to a player-only page. To get around this, visit your [HDA's static IP]:32400/web/

example:
192.168.0.1:32400/web/

This should bring you to the same log in page, but redirect you to the server setup.

The default server name is LocalHostLocalDomain, change this to PlexMS. Now the address //PlexMS.Amahi.Net should bring you to the server page (with player too).

Also, visiting your Dynamic DNS name followed by port 32400 (example.yourhda.com:32400) will bring you to a player from anywhere on the internet. Port forwarding is required at your router's firewall.

When I change the server name to PlexMS I just get a message telling me "There was a problem claiming this server."

Are there any bods on here experiencing this please? I am following the instructions now honest. AND i'm using the Amahi server as DHCP

Did you check the supported device list to see if yours is on it?

Sorry but I don’t use this app, so can’t be much help.

Hopefully someone in the community can offer guidance.

Have you checked the Plex Media Server support site?
