Hi All, I know it was asked multiple times but I’m a noob.

What is the best way to access my server from external network? I know I can open a port on router (not recommended), Tailscales, Wireguard or Direct VPN. I will access from android phone and maybe from other devices.

What I want to try to access (mainly docker on NAS)

  • bitwarden
  • calibre
  • setup home assistant
  • possibly RSS server
  • nextcloud
  • plex server (already remote access)
  • maybe docker apps too

Thanks

    I’m fairly noob-ish but have run Tailscale like this for about a year:

    Tailscale on your NAS runs as the host and when you open the Tailscale app on your phone you copy the IP it gives you and use that (plus the port that your services like Bitwarden, Calibre etc each use). Eg.

    100.121.9.23:8081

    THAT’s the sort of IP you the add to the Bitwarden app or type into your web browser.

    I’m pretty amateur with tech but found Tailscale pretty easy to set up and run.
