Can't connect (TNCE 25.10.6)

Hello all

My HP microserver gen8 and a free account on trueNAS Connect - they won’t talk to one another. I’m on a LAN with no clever firewalls or anything of that nature.

Here’s a range of screenshots which help to describe the problem; I set up a free account for truenas connect Foundation, using a google account. I followed the instructuions and then logged into my local TN box and found the icon, and then the following mix of screenshots (TN local UI and TN connect Foundation).

That’s more or less the sequence of events; I have tried several times (logged in, out, repeated myself, ran out of ideas).

Any advice would be welcome !

I’ve come home to try again and now I see this:

So I logged into TN and saw this, which I tried:

which gave rise to this:

and then this:

which is back to square one. I will now try this:

except I am not using any DNS protection so I am a bit stuck:

That last screenshots shows AdGuard / Ad Block. Try turning that off temporarily and see if it works. Have you tried Cloudflare or Google for a DNS setting, even temporarily?

It’s a good idea and one I should have thought of myself, but alas it hasn’t helped. This is what I saw when changing my DNS from Adguard’s to 8.8.8.8:

same as before:

this is different! Maybe it’ll work?

No.

Then I’m taken back to this setup page:

I wonder if that port 443 implies that https is mandatory, whereas I am simply using http in which case this will never work for me.
