If you own an AirPort Extreme and use it as a router, you can specify default DNS servers for all of the devices connected to your wireless network. This is a great way to enforce enterprise network policies using OpenDNS, which allows you to implement security and filtering controls. And if you’re a home user, you can protect your children by configuring DNS servers for the entire house and enable parental controls with OpenDNS.
Note that this feature will not work if your AirPort Extreme is in bridge mode. If you are using bridge mode, you’ll need to configure the DNS servers on your router. Here’s how to change an AirPort Extreme’s DNS servers:

Plex Mac How To Set Up Manual Port Airport Extreme
I have an airport extreme and I believe I've followed the Plex instructions to make it accessible to the iOS plex client:
1. Determined Mac address for Macbook Pro
2. Click + under 'Network' under the Airport Extreme and added the Mac address and the static local address of my Mac
3. Under Port settings I set up all the Public and Private ports to 32400, private IP address to my MBP's static local address
When I put my router's static address into the Plex client on the iPhone along with the 32400 port it can't find or connect to it.
Ideas?
It all works fine if the iPhone is on the same local wireless network as the Plex server.
