Hi All, I know it was asked multiple times but I’m a noob.

What is the best way to access my server from external network? I know I can open a port on router (not recommended), Tailscales, Wireguard or Direct VPN. I will access from android phone and maybe from other devices.

What I want to try to access (mainly docker on NAS)

  • bitwarden
  • calibre
  • setup home assistant
  • possibly RSS server
  • nextcloud
  • plex server (already remote access)
  • maybe docker apps too

Thanks

    thanks. So lets say I want to open Bitwarden app on android, and the vault is on NAS, I need to open the tailscale app first on that mobile? Sorry if this is a silly question.

      Yeah. The simplest setup you could start with with would be tailscale on the nas and your phone, switch it on in Android (it works like a VPN) and you should be able to connect to the tailscale ip of the Nas.
