Maybe. I'm on wifi provided by a Mexican telecom. It's probably my US sim. The comment i replied to said "it shows as this in mexico" and my point was, no, not for everyone. I'm not interested enough to try to nail down the exact reason.

I'm in tijuana about 10 miles south of the border and it shows as Gulf of America

He's gonna turn out like the granddad in the movie Holes

I just got this set up last week too. Same setup with caddy on a free oracle vps, tailscale on vps and home pfsense router, tailscale on pfsense advertising routes (private IPs of my docker hosted services).

CGNAT sucks 🤮

I started learning on Unraid OS and its pretty easy to get started as a newbie. They have a CA Apps plugin/store (free, though) that have pre-built docker templates for popular software. Makes it easy to get started.

In the same OS you can also host VMs in case you're trying to run something not suited to docker.

I mean, i don't know for sure either. But it seems like it would work.

Have you tried creating a subdomain for the camera and then proxy that to your camera? Ie, camera.example.com [CNAME -> example.com] -> nginx -> 192.168.x.x? Then embed the camera.subdomain.com in your WordPress however embedding videos is done?

In mexico most (if not all) cell service providers give social media for free, ie it uses no data in your phone plan.

What is social media, according to these companies? Facebook, WhatsApp, Instagram. That's it. Everyone uses Facebook marketplace and WhatsApp for everything, because it's "free".

I think most people don't understand the stranglehold Meta has over a huge portion of the world's population. I'm confident this arrangement is not only going on in mexico.

I installed immich snap in a vm and i haven't had to mess with it since.

Literally just finished configuring headscale on a free (pay as you go) oracle vps because I'm behind cgnat. Getting tailscale on pfsense to connect to a headscale server was a chore but finally got it.

I'm american living in tijuana for the last 10 years and literally everyone locks their doors in tijuana. Not only do they lock their doors, but any windows on the ground floor have bars on them, any walls around a property are topped with glass or pointy metal, and any driveways/car ports are gated and locked.

Where in mexico do people not lock their houses? Asking for a friend.

You didn't explicitly ask for other suggestions but here's mine anyway; I'm running tailscale on my pfsense router and sharing my home network cidr over tailscale like someone else suggested. So all my dockers and vms are available over tailscale from anywhere. It's been highly convenient as my home internet connection is behind CGNAT.

 

Mostly I'm curious what people's setups are. Are you using docker or a VM? Which tools are you using to stream and play your roms or steam games?

Looking for suggestions for myself as well... I'm on unraid and looking to support multiple users.
