• Cheap domain?

  Either way you'll end up using a host like a2hosting.com (search for "a2hosting comparison" to find other hosts) which let you put up your own web pages because listing domains only on Afternic, Sedo, GoDaddy, etc., still doesn't give you much more visibility than posting them as For Sale on which ever domain name service/registrar you choose, which in itself gives you little visibility except to sharks who cruise...

• Need to move site from bluehost to a quicker wordpress hosting platform with an easy to use UI - what should I pick?

  The sidebar has plenty of hosts for you to choose from. Additionally, I personally use A2 hosting (https://a2hosting.com) for my hosting needs. They've been a pleasure to work with over the last few years. Source: about 2 years ago

• Asus router script to export new OpenVPN config file on reboot

  I had to manually change the external IP in OpenDNS file to DDNS name, but I'm using Omada. Either way, as others said, use DDNS. I use noip.com for free. Source: 7 months ago

• Where are the Dynamic DNS setup settings?

  Before switching to Quantum I was using noip.com and my previous router had setup options so it would auto-update this service when my WAN IP changed. I'd prefer to use noip.com but I guess I don't really mind a switch to dyndns. I would just like to have something working - anyone know how to configure this modem for dynamic DNS? Is the help text just wrong? Source: 9 months ago

• How can I start setting up a home network

  First: static public IP is not necessary for selfhosting small services. The reason you want static ip is because when you have dynamic dns, it takes time for the DNS records to update when your IP changes. It makes sense to have static ip if you're a business hosting a website so you have zero downtime. In fact, before I bought my own domain name, I simply used a free address from noip.com! It provides a dynamic... Source: 10 months ago

• i need to redirect port 80 to 443

  Certbot has another confirmation method called DNS challange, but I use noip.com , not sure if there is a free dynamic domain name alternative. Source: 10 months ago

• Run a server in the same computer I'll play on [java]

  Your internet looks good, though download speeds aren't everything. I'd probably use 6gb ram. Make sure you trust whoever's joining your server, since they connect by your IP. You can use a service like no-ip if you want a prettier ip to connect to, though then you're trusting them with your IP (not a huge deal but something to consider). Lastly, you could try a dedicated host such as aternos which offers free... Source: 10 months ago
