Beginner Question (lemmy.world)
submitted 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) by droidfone@lemmy.world to c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

Hi. I have just started my journey. How do I direct incoming traffic to my minipc? I have received a static ip from my isp but their router does not have any settings exposed to end users. Is this possible to do without touching the router?

Edit: Thanks all for valuable feedbacks. The router they provided had a different superadmin account which had the settings like NAT, DMZ etc. Also it is able to work in bridge mode. So I can add my own router if I need some additional functionality. Will be tinkering a lot in coming days. So hopefully, I get some more insights into it.

Glad it helped! I didn’t want to derail your plan if you knew what you were doing, but your question reminded me of when I was first starting, so I wanted to provide a beginner friendly solution in case you needed it.
