I’m setting up a Jellyfin server locally and need to reach it from outside my home network without forwarding ports. I’ve reviewed Jake’s tutorial several times but still find it confusing. Should I use the dedicated VSP for this scenario? How does it link to my home network from the outside without me redirecting traffic? The explanations feel unclear, making it hard to grasp what’s happening. Help would be really appreciated!

Tailscale is amazing! https://tailscale.com To set this up in Jellyfin, just added my new IPs to the LAN connections in the Networking section of the Dashboard. Let me know if you need more help—I want everyone on the same page.
