Hello everyone,

I’m in a pickle and I need your help. My mom, who is usually very smart and savvy, made a terrible mistake. She bought a Jio Fiber connection (prepaid for 6 months🤦) without asking me. She thought it would be a great deal and a wonderful surprise for me. Well, it was a surprise, alright. A nasty one. They do not provide a static IP address, which I desperately need for my work and hobbies. I used to RDP on my main Windows machine and control Proxmox with a static IP. Now I can’t do that anymore on the new ISP. I feel like I’m trapped in a nightmare. I tried to find a way out by installing Twingate docker on my Debian VM using Proxmox. But alas, Twingate doesn’t work either. I tried Dynamic DNS, but that’s a dead end too. I recently discovered that Jio provides IPv6 and the WiFi AP features are mostly locked down (seems like shady practices). I want to connect to my home network. How can I access it? Please help me before I throw my computer out of the window.

Just install Tailscale on your Docker host.
