Double-NAT Apartment Help Requested
Would likely be cheaper than the static IP route. There's tons of guides for getting around CGNAT with Plex and other utilities. You could use an argo tunnel, but Cloudflare gets kinda sad proxying video.
- My VPN provider is shutting off port forwarding, what to use now?

What is actually port-forwarding in VPN? why would it effect torrenting and seeding?
I'll be dropping Mullvad and either switch to AirVPN or i'll try and get Plexargod up and running. Looks like a pain in the ass, most port related things imho but we'll see. https://github.com/danielewood/plexargod

FAQ: Common misconceptions about port forwarding, and how does it affect you
Q: Can I still access Plex/Jellyfin/Emby and share it with others? A: Yes, and you don't need Mullvad just for this use-case. Cloudflare Argo tunnel is probably more efficient for that, since it's a large CDN and will have better latency in general. There is a tutorial.

Goodbye, section 2.8 and hello to Cloudflare’s new terms of service
plexargod may still be an option if you want to abuse their generous free tiers, lol.

Is there a way to get plex remote access to work behind a network wide VPN?
You can kind of skirt the restrictions using something like plexargod I suppose.
- Cloudflare Tunnel - Plex

Most secure way to host a plex server from network?
The ToS come into play when you sign up for an account. You can still achieve the tunnels without creating any cloudflare accounts as seen in plexargod. It helps makes an otherwise manual process easier.
