Greetings,

my current ISP refuses to provide me a static IP and they also blocks incoming connection to my ipv6 so I can’t host services on just ipv6 too. I will be changing my ISP when the plan expires.

without public IP I can host my own IRC bouncer but I would like to know what else can I self host? Thanks in advance!

    I believe duckdns has a tool that checks your public ip on a schedule to update your subdomain. (Which they provide for free last I checked)

        You usually only need to specify the internal host ip to setup a port forward. It should forward that to whatever the public ip is at the time.

        If the isp is providing the model/router and generally being oppressive i highly recommend researching if you can place your own router behind it.

          Oh I’m fine, static IP and so on, but, for example, my friend has this crappy shared ports system so I’m interested in something alleviating that. What you described seemed like the solution to non-static IP addresses so I just commented that.

          Cheers
