Enterprise firewalls can detect if you’re running services on non-standard ports.

For example if you try to use ssh on port 443, I block that.

If you try to use https on 8443 I block that.

Also if your domain is on a dynamic dns domain or is relatively new then it might get blocked.

It’s not common in enterprise to not auto-update.

Jellyfin logs will tell you if it’s transcoding. If you have a dvd you can use handbrake to convert it to any format you want.

If you stream to a different device and have the same issues and it’s also not transcoding then you can isolate the issue to your tv, network, or hypervisor.

What makes you think it’s the r usb-c adapter? Switch to wifi and see if there’s any difference. Try a 4k source that doesn’t need transcoding to confirm it’s not a hw acceleration issue.

I’ve used no-ip.com for years without issue.

My NAS supports a few services out of the box. If you have anything like that, see what they support natively first.

Can you hit the port?

Ping,Tracert,Knock on the port with Telnet.

I’m guessing firewall rules related to your vpn.

There’s nothing wrong with hardware raid. You can probably pass them through as individual drives.

I would use them as is but only buy sata going forward.

You responded to a question with an incorrect answer. I was correcting that.

VPNs shouldn’t need to forward any ports when using ipv6. They can provide an entire ipv6 subnet to you.

Port forwarding is a function of NAT. It’s only needed because there aren’t enough ipv4 addresses for every device, so in most networks a lot of devices share a single ip and specific ports are forwarded to specific internal hosts

IPv6 has a large enough address space that this isn’t needed. You can still do it if you want. But mostly you just need a firewall without any NAT.

There’s more to it than this but you should get the idea.

I use a Reolink camera for this purpose. Its not self hosted but it’s solar capable and doesn’t need an inbound firewall rule.

Is the traffic not already encrypted? What would wire guard be providing here?

What’s the question

It’s selective. You just provide the internal address or the Tailscale host name. All other traffic runs outside of the vpn tunnel.

Honestly it takes 10 mins to set up you should try it out.

Well yes but that’s a one-time setup.

Tailscale meets your needs even without an exit node configured.

I’ve owned them for a while but agree. I’m also going to pick up 1 or 2 rack chassis models soon for free, which I would recommend over paying for a qnap.

Off the shelf NAS like Synology or qnap both have this feature.

I went with a nas since I needed storage and barely any compute, and I wanted it on all of the time. I also wanted a cloud sync service.

Keep in mind that SMB and NFS work fine across any network but iSCSI needs a reliable hardwire network with decent buffers on the switch.

Attaches storage uses USB which isn’t that great. eSATA is better. External drives start to add up too.
