Plex home server issue

Hey guys, there doesn't seem to be an actual forum for plex so I'll drop my question here.

I've been trying for the last couple of days to set up a plex server at home so I can stream my own files to the various firesticks around the house. I have got the server set up on the PC with the video files on, all movies/TV series added. When I connect through the browser on the same computer I can access the video files but when I log in to the app on a firestick the server is unavailable!

I can see the server but it just says retry connection which does nothing. I have tried logging out and back in on both server and app, I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling but nothing! I have made sure both devices are on the same subnet as well and I even tried disabling my firewall.

Anyone had this problem and managed to solve it?
