Hello, I’m planning on creating a home server and getting some cameras.

I would like to have the server, cameras and all IOT devices be disconnected from the internet but still be able to access them within the house from different devices and maybe have limited access to them when outside.

Do I need a specific hardware for this? And what router would support this? I’m still in the planning phase but I’m looking for budget friendly solutions.

Thank you

    This, pretty much - except you can do it with one router, the internet access point/gateway router.

    Set up DMZ that can only access internal network, then set up a VPN and use that to access DMZ. If you need to, you can make a pinhole for one service or another, but you shouldn’t need to because they’re exposed to the LAN, and the LAN is accessible via VPN.

    I suppose “DMZ” isn’t exactly the right term, there, because that’s typically somewhat exposed externally, but… …same idea, just no external exposure.
