Kind of out of ideas here. I am switching from SickRage, and setup Sonarr on the same port (after removing SR of course) Sonarr works fine within my LAN but not from the outside. I even tried changing the bind address to the local servers IP, from the wild card with no improvement. Windows firewall is disabled.
It oddly started working after a few service restarts. No idea. Looks like I am all setup now. So far I am really liking the simplicity over SR (no external scripts to deal with is amazing). One thing SR does really well though is torrents…and so far it seems Sonarr has limited to no support for my torrent trackers. IPTorrents & TorrentLeech for example both have template profiles in Sonarr, but neither support search. What good is it if it can’t be searched?
