Cloudflare Alternative
fedilink

What do you guys use to expose private IP addresses to the web? I was using the npm proxy manager with Cloudflare CDN. However, it stopped working after I changed my router (I keep getting error 521). Looking for an alternative to Cloudflare cdn so I can access my media server/self-hosted services away from LAN.

(Tailscale doesn’t work for me at all)

This is what I want to achieve: https://youtu.be/c6Y6M8CdcQ0?feature=shared

I literally followed this tutorial to make it work the first time.

Can I ask why tailscale doesn’t work?

I have a headscale instance running in oracle’s free tier and can get to everything else through that.

I have tried to connect to Tailscale multiple times; it goes smoothly through all steps, but the IP addresses it gives you don’t work for me: This site can’t be reached

I was mainly interested in headscale but that didn’t work either; I even tried their docker.yml
