hmmm i see.. i've head bout tailscale.. but how's the speed? will all traffic from home have to go thru the VPS (slowing down connection, and consuming costly VPS bandwidth)?
You can get a a VPS with unlimited bandwidth, I use IONOS at work, it’s a 500mb connection on their end (1gig at work) we have multiple people streaming video/downloading files without issue.
wow, ok, tnx for the leads.
Tailscale negotiates a direct VPN to the VPS and all traffic going through the VPN goes through the VPS.
As for bandwidth its not really that expensive unless you need like 30-50tb per month type numbers.
If its specific machines you can install tailscale on those also and they make a direct connection.
I got on my phone,laptop,tablet etc so wherever i am it will use tailscale as middleman to find open ports and establish a vpn to home network.
