    Thats was super helpful information, even though some of it towards the end was a bit hard to comprehend, for me, I mean. But I have some relevant keywords to search and find out more about, haha, so its all good. Ill do some reading up on how to set up sdwan services like you mentioned, and also about dynamic dns. From the general consensus, air VPN is the popular choice, so ill look into signing up with them soon. Thank you very much!


  • That is something I would like to look into in the future, but since you are knowledgeable with regards to VPS, can I ask you why the RAM figures are more important than the storage figures, in the few services I checked out, and the example you gave, the RAM value is what is prominently mentioned, if the purpose is to store media and such, doesnt the storage capacity take precedence, like in a seedbox?



  • I am not very knowledgable about vps and how that could be something I can use. To be frank, I dont have any particular need for a VPN other than torrenting and bypassing geographical restriction in a general way. The jellyfin experiment was to just be able to share my media across the web, so that people I know can access my media, music, mostly. Even the selection of a VPN isnt that urgent as I have a shared seedbox with seedbox.eu so that I can download torrents safely. Since I have been using a VPN for some years now, I thought id keep one handy, and when I was reading up about port forwarding, I thought maybe that could be useful, for jellyfin and such.
