  • I switched to it because the ISP blocked ports 80/443. It was good and things actually got a bit faster with them handling SSL certs.

    but one thing to note is that the free tier has a 100MB file limit. I got around some of that by using the tail scale vpn with a custom domain entry to point to the local network.

    I did these changes (wire guard to tail scale, dns to tunnels, etc) at different times, which is why things aren’t very consistent.








  • I recently switched my home to using cloudaflare tunnels from dns because the ISP blocked traffic. my services are exposed to the Internet, so if you only want access by vpn, I’ve found tailscale to be easier than wireguard. If you want external access, you can get a domain name from CF and set up cloudflared on the host device and target the docker service names. But with both ways, you can have your ports not exposed to the Internet.

    I formerly used external DNS until the ISP blocked the modem.
