Dear all,  
I found [cast node](https://flows.nodered.org/node/node-red-contrib-cast) which I find very useful.  
My node-red installation is not residing in my local LAN, but on the server in the cloud.  
I created port forwarding rule for port 8009 (Google cast) and configured IP to my WAN IP. I tested port forwarding rule and connection comes to the google cast device, but neverthelles, google cas ftom Node red is not working. I get "client error". Does anyone have any idea, what can be wrong. have anyone managed to get it working from WAN?

JFI I just installed it on my Win10 PC and it successfully spoke to me so the node does basically work

Yes understand. But you're running in on local network. I am running it from outside network.

I knew that but just wanted to let you know that the node basically works - some contrib nodes don't 🙂

I can easily imagine that trying to use Chromecast over a WAN isn't easily possible - searching using google finds no successful results
