Right now I’ve been using Tailscale because it automatically adapts to my network conditions. If I’m at home, it’ll prioritize local network connection, but when I’m out and about, it’ll automatically beam a direct connection or use a relay.

One gripe I have about it is I can’t run it alongside my normal VPNs on my mobile devices. I have to choose between one or the other.

I have tried Cloudflare Tunnel before, but using it for streaming, like Jellyfin, is forbidden. There’s also the added latency and slowness to having to hop through multiple DCs to reach Cloudflare and back.

    1. Dynamic DNS hooked in to one of my spare domains
    2. Wireguard running on my firewall
    3. An alert set up to inform me any time ANY client connects to said VPN
    4. Smart plug between my firewall and the UPS

    Connect on my device or my travel router to get onto my home network and then access additional services as though I were local. And on the off chance I get an alert that something is connected and it is not me? I kill my network and deal with it when I get home. Not perfect (since I could be asleep) but gives me peace of mind on the off chance my VPN somehow becomes compromised.
