Hey, this is not the world’s most helpful answer, but: [“This Broadcaster is Currently Offline” Troubleshooting](https://forum.livepeer.org/t/this-broadcaster-is-currently-offline-troubleshooting/171)

In short, since you can view the stream at the player.html page it’s most likely a networking issue that is not at all your fault. One other test you can do is to run another Livepeer node, on a second machine or even on the same machine, and to request you stream by manifestID in the `livepeer_cli`. If it works, you successfully passed video p2p through the network…but unfortunately some networking issue is preventing it from getting to our gateway on [media.livepeer.org](http://media.livepeer.org). We have some networking fixes coming soon and some longer term proposals as well: [https://github.com/livepeer/go-livepeer-basicnet/issues](https://github.com/livepeer/go-livepeer-basicnet/issues)
