Total noob, but I set up TrueNAS/Nextcloud on an old laptop and it’s working great locally.

What would be the easiest secure way to access my files remotely from my phone and/or laptop?

    You put the ip address that tailscale gives you along with the port number of your NextCloud instance.

      Is the port number the 4 numbers after the : which I use as a url to access Nextclouds web gui?

      Also that means I should be adding two routes?

        Yes the port number is the last 4 digits after the :.

          Sorry for the questions, how do I know which Tailnet IP to use? Each device seems to get a different address and a I tested a couple and neither worked

          A tutorial I watched used 192.168.3.0/24. I tested this and it didn’t give me any errors and it connected to tailscale, but I couldn’t actually access things remotely

            You use the tailscale ip address of whatever device your hosting NextCloud from
