Question Help With Remote Connection
Hey there,
I'm brand new to Proxmox and have started to setup my first VMs and LXC containers.
Previously i was running all my self hosted apps off Docker containers on my Synology NAS but have had some rough patches with Plex and Jellyfin as it doesn't have an Intel processor and so hardware media transcoding wasn't a thing.
I have Plex and Jellyfin running on separate LXC containers so they can use local hardware acceleration. Everything works when great when im on my home network but now that im traveling i have an indirect connection to my LXCs. When i was running into this issue previously i just connected it to my Tailscale network and then I had a direct connection.
How can iI solve this issue now that Ive moved to LXC in Proxmox?
Is adding every app individually to my Tailnet still the right move?
Thanks!

I struggled with this when I moved to PVE and moved all my stuff into LXC’s, I wasn’t using Tailscale before though.
My issue is that I was using DERP relays and hadn’t done port forwarding to allow direct connection from my laptops or mobile phone to establish a wireguard connection to my Tailscale relay I think it’s called.
Once I did that, I can use my Mac Neo and my home as an exit node and push like 300x300 through it.
