Correct. By log in directly I meant giving my credentials.

Although I majored in Computer Science and Networking, that was like 20
years ago. I haven't done much of technical work in the last 15 years. I
wouldn't expect for me to need to setup any sort of forwarding rules
because, as you very well say, home networks have a deny all incoming
network traffic unless previously initiated from within the network. I
tried forwarding port TCP4070 just in case for some reason Spotify would
challenge back my connection attempt using a different protocol/port
from within the network. Pretty much like FTP. But if that would have
proven been the case, I would have been reluctant to leave it like
that.

I should have mentioned that I managed to see my raspberry pi acting as
a Spotify endpoint, when I tested volumio. So both my laptop, smartphone
and local network should be able to allow me to see local endpoints and
make use of Spotify Connect.

Could you let me know how I should restart LMS with that option enabled?
do I need to run any CLI command or is that something one does from the
web interface on LMS?

For sure there is something missing on my side. I thank you in advance
for your time and support. Thank you!
