Network requirements and communication ports

Last updated on Oct 30, 2025

Connection problems may occur when the player is behind a firewall or under special network environments. Here's what you should know.

The player requires basic open network access which permits communication via HTTPS.

Remember:

  • Every player requires access to the internet and must have a dedicated ethernet cable.

  • WiFi connections are permitted but not recommended.

  • Static IP addresses can be assigned on the media player, but we recommend enabling the DHCP server on your router, for the player to auto-obtain a local IP address.

For advanced enterprise level firewalls..

... please have your network administrator review and enable the necessary settings and ACL’s mentioned below:

* Dynamic URLs that translate to a pool of different IP addresses based on region and response times. If your enterprise requires mandatory static end-point IPs for all communication, please contact us at [email protected]

Additional network settings (if not enabled already):

  1. Enabling NAT

  2. Disabling Load-balancers (in order to support web-socket connections)

  3. Disabling TCP RST

  4. Enabling support for TLSv1.2
