I'm trying to self-host a TeamSpeak 3 server and possibly other services that require both TCP and UDP. I’ve tried Rathole, and while it worked briefly, it's been flaky — especially with UDP stability.

I’m looking for a tunnel or reverse proxy solution that:

Supports both TCP and UDP

Can expose services behind NAT or firewalls

Doesn’t require installing anything on each connecting device (like clients/friends)

Preferably self-hosted (I’m running a VPS and a home server)

Bonus points for NAT traversal or easy setup

I’ve looked at WireGuard, Tailscale, and Nebula — but they all seem to require software on the client side.

What do you use for this type of setup? Is there something reliable out there that can tunnel both TCP and UDP to the public without client software?

Thanks in advance!
