Looking for an alternative to cloudflare tunnel (lemmy.today)

Hi, I moved this year to another city, because my internet provider didn't give me a dedicated ipv4 address I can't use a dyndns like duckdns. Another thing to mention is, that I have a dslite tunnel. So I can't set up dyndns...

So my recent setup is a truenas server sitting under my desk. This is connected via cloudflared to the cloudflare tunnel. There I have my services like seafile or nextcloud configured. They are all pointing to a traefik instance that routes the traffic to the right container.

So to summarize what I have:

Truenas server
- multiple services
dslite tunnel
own domain
Cloudflare tunnel
v-server
- Nginx
- docker

To visualize the route the traffic is going

Internet - cloudflare tunnel - cloudfared docker - traefik docker - service (nextcloud) docker

So I want to setup something on my v-server that routes the traffic to my homeserver (truenas)

Internet - DNS (cloudflare) - v-server - (magic docker service on truenas) - traefik docker - service (nextcloud) docker

Does someone have an idea how to solve this?

In that case you should probably give up using your own domain and take the one from Tailscale because they would intermediate direct connections whenever possible.

The main limitation on the VPS would be bandwidth as well as total transfer, not so much processing power because their just be moving stuff through. They all come with limits.
