I want to use my own storage at home. I'm not gonna pay for several TB of storage on a seedbox when I already have the HDD

As far as I know, tailscale still requires me to set up my own exit node

You're probably behind a CGNAT, check out the other comments

This looks neat. I'm saving it for the next time I have to work with spaghetti code from a previous contractor :)

Your ISP might make you go through another layer of NAT. Can you find the WAN IP address of your router and compare it to your public IP address from a website such as ipinfo.io ?

If they do not match, you're probably out of luck and will need to forward your port from an actually public IP in order to achieve what you want

More details : CGNAT (Carrier Grade Network Address Translation) is basically a second router between your router and the public internet. This second router is configured in the same way as your personal one, the main difference being that your ISP fully manages it. From the viewpoint of this second router, your WAN IP is a private IP, and you share one actual public IP with several other customers (the same way all devices on you LAN share one single WAN IP)

Performing port forwarding from the public internet to your LAN, when behind a CGNAT, would require you to be able to configure a forwarding rule in the ISP's NAT, which you usually cannot do.

Migrating all my IPv4 stuff (firewalls, VPN, routing tables, etc) to IPv6 is probably the one thing I've procrastinated for the most time in my life :/

This looks awesome. I'm saving this to my "try later" list

Does anyone know about this app ? Is it legit or is this just some kind of sponsored article ?
