    I'm not convinced that Plex's remote access check is particularly reliable.

    It doesnt work on a nat vps. you have to manually add the server ip to each plex client

    It should if the ports are forwarded properly but I've found it's sometimes says a server in unreachable even when you can browse manually to the IP/Port and it works fine.

    You can also use the publish additional URLS via "Custom server access URLs" in Network > Advanced so if they have a HTTP(s) reverse proxy for 80/443 then as long as it lets you forward to the plex port that will probably work.

    You can probably also do http://ip:port but i'd imagine that will break SSL.

    Edit:

    The remote access check will fail if the outbound IP is different to the inbound one as Plex checks the IP that hit the plex servers.

    I used plex with nat vps about a year ago without any proxy . Just assign a manual port that is available and use iptables.
    My last (Ever)note says something like that :
    iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 8905 -j DNAT --to <server-local-ip-
