  • Dyndns really shouldn’t affect your connection, as long as you have a local client that updates your record automatically.

    I use jellyfin together with caddy and it was pretty seamless to setup. I configured the caddyfile to redirect my incoming domain to my local ip and the rest worked automatically. It sets up a legitimate certificate for the domain using lets encrypt and automatically renews it.

    When you have an encrypted connection, the isp can’t see what is being sent between you and the webserver. They can however see your dns-requests unless you have dns over encryption enabled.

    The only security measure beyond keeping things up to date that i would recommend is to have a geo-blocker enabled for incoming traffic to your network.









  • It has to do with link priority on the server. You’d imagine that a server that receives a packet that has a return address on the same subnet as it self logically would use that interface instead.

    A similar thing happens in switches. For example if you have two vlans on a switch and both vlans have an ip assigned, connect a computer to one of the vlans. You will only be able to reach the switch on the non-routed connection. Even if you also are allowed to reach the second vlan through a router/Firewall.
