Have I went overboard? Any suggestions? Or help? I travel a lot and don’t have a lot of time when I am home to setup and configure.
I’m using Cloudron on Linode for some things because I have StarLink and haven’t figured out how to connect via internet to my LAN yet. I can use VPN with the router but it seems wonky.
2 NAS
2 Raspberry Pi’s with DNS servers
Raspberry Pi with HomeAssistant
Separate NVR for cameras
Several Docker containers on one of NAS
A Raspberry Pi with DietPi. a 1TB attached drive and Docker Containers.
Cloudron on Linode for when I’m away from home.
How else would I? Not exposing it to the WAN and with StarLink, VPN is the solution. Though not a network guy either.
Subdomains with traffic routed through a reverse proxy listening on 80 and 443 (HTTPS everything with certbot SSLs) with a dynamic DNS client updating your DNS provider whenever your IP address changes.
I don’t think that works with Starlink (CGNAT)
IIRC you can use DNS challenge behind a CGNAT, but you still wouldn’t be able to access the system remotely. But you could use Tailscale for that, or Headscale on your VPS. You could also put a wireguard server on your VPS.
Private DNS within your Lan and your choice of proxy to remap ports
