Would reverse SSH-ing from the laptops to a VPS with a static IP solve this problem? It sounds like OP would still be using AWS so he could set up a permanent IP there and then reverse SSH.
I have $5/month VPS which I use for this reason though my home IP address is static. My use case is simply for messing around and nothing that has to be up and running 24/7. Power outage/flicker has been the biggest issue for me.
- harrygeez 3y agoInteresting... This is actually the first time I heard of reverse SSH. But if my understanding is correct then it should solve the problem theoretically. Using AWS will give you a static IP, but if you ask me that's a little overkill if your purpose is only for getting a static IP. If you have a domain name some registrars like Namecheap offers DDNS service for free. Or you could just use a free service like no-ip or DuckDNS
- grocketeer 3y agoYes it might, though I wasn’t aware that SSH sessions ought to / are capable of living for long periods of time.
