I wish we were a little farther along so I'd have more to say, but we're hoping to solve this with https://hoppy.network/ https://hoppy.network/. It's nothing you couldn't do yourself, but we host it for you so you don't have to. We host WireGuard servers which assign a stable public IPv4 and IPv6 on your device's WireGuard tunnel interface. As far as your device is concerned, it's like its tunnel interface is a publicly addressable connection. Because it is! Just with one extra encrypted hop at the end. Nothing to install besides WireGuard itself. WireGuard's biggest papercut (Dynamic DNS) is solved because we provide you a connection to a server with a static IP. No promotional emails. No spam. Just a simple service for a specific, niche need. Hope to post about its launch here soon. (logan@hoppy.network for questions!)

I like it. Forwarding public ips through WireGuard is a nice level of abstraction. I maintain a list of tunneling solutions here: https://github.com/anderspitman/awesome-tunneling https://github.com/anderspitman/awesome-tunneling Happy to add hoppy if you think you're a good fit and submit a PR. A couple questions: * Do you provide any sort of reverse proxy service, ie HTTPS termination with Let's Encrypt support, similar to OP? * Do you provide any DNS integration or automation, or purely IPs? EDIT: Also how would you compare hoppy to Tailscale?

  Yes, we provide reverse DNS for the IPv4 through the management interface. A subdomain (*.hoppy.link) for the tunnelled IP address provided can be created if you send us a support email. We do not provide any reverse proxy, but it could be a possibility if there is demand. Tailscale uses the non-routable IP space, and is strictly for private networks, and cannot publish to public networks.

about how far out do you think you are?

  The core technology is in place and scales. We're drudging through the necessary steps of bank account, payment processor, account management, etc now. If we were working full time on it, maybe a month? But we're not and the holidays are approaching. I'd expect Q1 2021.
