NextCloud stopped functioning after you relocated to a new apartment.
Hello everyone, I just relocated to a new apartment and my Nextcloud server hosted on my home PC has stopped functioning. After verifying my domain name and IP address, the port check shows a failure. I updated the router settings and configured forwarding rules for ports 80 and 443, but nothing seems to work. I'm using Ubuntu 22.04 on Linux Pop OS, and while the server runs fine on the LAN, it's inaccessible via the domain name. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Are you connected through the same internet service provider? Some providers restrict access to ports 80 and 443 specifically for home users on non-business plans. If you're on the same ISP, verify all your settings, ensure no hard-coded information remains from your old WAN IP, confirm your dynamic DNS is correctly linked to your current IP address, and check that it actually reflects your present location.
I don’t share the same ISP, but I did use theirs before hosting servers, so I’m guessing they won’t be blocking me now. I should reach out to them to confirm. I’ve already verified the DNS points to my correct IP address.
You're still using the same domain and DNS settings, haven't modified any configurations, and the port forwarding remains unchanged. It functions across your local network, which suggests the problem lies with your ISP—@LIGISTX mentioned. Even if the ISP is identical, you might be going through another NAT layer further upstream. Running a traceroute could reveal blocking devices. Consider using a VPN for NextCloud, such as ZeroTier, to bypass NATs and improve security, especially if public access isn't ideal.
