I do have my own web server running centos 7 i could use. I am planning to buy a small mini-pc that will be running home assistant and frigate for recording my camera’s and integrating AI detection into my smart home. It seems the best installation for that is debian.
I have a router that is using a wireguard vpn, that does not allow port forwarding, so i need an alternative to access the mini-pc.
Now, of course there’s some things to be found when googling, but my preference goes to the most easy-to-use solution as i’m not great with linux, i just mess around digging through configs, copy-pasting instructions and getting stuff done that way. This is why I wanted to ask you guys for advice =)
Would appriciate assistance!
If you have a VPN router, your router literally has remote access built in as a feature. The VPN can be connected to remotely, and allow you to access locally hosted services. I use mine for such a purpose. When configured correctly, your VPN connection makes your device get treated like it’s on the local network.
I had so much trouble setting up the router with vpn that i’d really rather not make big changes…
