i got it finally. by seting up a no-ip account that i found in my router settings, i can make a link, that acts as my ip address. so i put the link that it gives me, and then just put :2202 at the end. 
but i had to have my router port forward my INTERNAL ip address 192.168blablabla to forward to 2202. i did both tcp and udp. finally when i got that, and i ran the no-ip, it FINNALY worked. i hope that helps someone. 

ive been fighting with plex for comics for 5 months. i had albums organized pretty well, but it would just crash when ever it tried to scan stuff. did a lot of research on it. plex is not good for this stuff, and its not going to get better. in fact they have discontinued any feature that might have led to it being better. 
this is your only option. 
also, if u buy a domain for like $5 you can assign your ip to it, so guys just have to type in "brianscomics.com" or some shit. 

i realized my mistake later that night. i thought the instructions where for lunux setup so i was skipping them. 

that being said, i appreciate the help. you have gotten me closer than ever, but im still not there. 

i set up port forwarding in my router. i set it up also in the windows firewall. i think.
i can access it locally with my internal ip address and the :2202. i can also do local host.
but for some reason i just cant get it on the outside. i used my external ip address, and plugged that into the address bar with the 2202.
nothing.
i now realize i did not set up static ip address for it since every time i reset the router, the external ip address changes. but regardless, it should still work wile i still have the ip address figured out.
i confirmed that the port is open with port forward checker. but when i have ubooquity running, it says the port is closed. no idea why that would be.
but after all that, its still just not connecting externally. i have been at this for 3 days.

any more help you could offer would be greatly appreciated.

i agree with this guy. i have been at this for 2 days. watched youtube videos. googled it every way i can think of. i dont know how people are just glossing over this step. how do you access the library from other computers?
