I’ve been setting up a music server on my home server recently, looking to move away from private hosting options like iBroadcast, but I’ve hit a bit of a snag when it comes to actually accessing my server when away from home.
The two most common recommendations I’ve seen are Cloudflare and OpenVPN. My router supports OVPN access, so I gave that a try, but couldn’t ever actually make it work. I don’t know for sure, but I think it’s probably something with my ISP that I can’t really easily work around. As far as Cloudflare goes, setting up a tunnel requires you to have a domain set up with them even if you’re just using Warp, and since I don’t have one, that’s not an option.
What other good options are there for remote access? I’m running Open Media Vault as my server. Thanks.


I use wireguard. One network is behind cgnat so i just get that client to connect outbound to the other client to initiate the tunnel (instead of trying to connect to IT) and it works just fine.
I did try tailscale once upon a time but it was so clunky and confusing for me…i just wanted to simply access my entire networks remotely without any overhead
