No I can’t access my start9 outside of my Wi-Fi at all. I set it up but I haven’t figured it out yet. I’m new to all this stuff.

nostr:npub126ntw5mnermmj0znhjhgdk8lh2af72sm8qfzq48umdlnhaj9kuns3le9ll may have a better or easier solution for you.

but off of the top of my head, the easiest one would be to use tailscale. it's a private VPN. install this app on your node and set it up on your phone. then add your relay to your nostr profile. i.e. wss://start9-node-name:1234 and then you'd need to launch your tailscale each time you want to connect to your own relay before you launch your nostr client.

the harder way, the way it do it, so i don't have to launch a VPN each time i connect to my node, requires some knowledge of command line and port forwarding on your router. if you want to go that route i can help later. heading to fireworks now.

Tailscale is awesome. It’s wireguard on steroids and it’s idiot proof.

I’m using the paid version of proton vpn and I’ve been looking into purchasing a new router to set up DD-WRT. Enjoy the fireworks there’s no rush on my end. I think I bit off more than I can chew. I went from using an iPhone to bitcoin, to nodes, Lightning, servers, Linux and now nostr. All in about a year. My head hurts. Tech support at start9 has been great btw.

If you don’t connect your mobile clients to VPN, do your notes and data all sync to your relay once you reconnect to the home network, on Start9 or myNode?

I’m not sure how to check that.

You can access your start9 remotely (outside your wifi/lan) over tor.

I’ve setup Tor on all my devices and still can’t access my start9 outside of my Wi-Fi. I think this is something to do with my modem.
