Why use a virtual server if you want to connect to your home network?
- porbelm 5y agoI have IPv6 at home with port 22 opened for one of my home server's IP's. But my work internet connection does not have IPv6 at all (lol) so I use one of my VPSes as a jump host.
- npteljes 5y agoMy home network has a dynamic IP. I'm using a home-baked dynamic DNS thingie, but a virtual server with a fixed IP could work too. Would update for the new IP much faster now that I think about it.
- Jenda_ 5y agoBecause in some countries, like .cz, it is pretty common that your home network is behind NAT, the ISP does not want to forward a port for you, and there is either no option to get a public IP or it costs $5 to $10/month and is a lengthy process to obtain (typical internet connection costs $20 to $30/month here).
