Tailscale Setup
Create a secure, zero-config Mesh VPN (Tailnet) to connect all your devices as if they were on the same local network.
Use Case: Access your Immich library or Stremio server on your phone anywhere without opening dangerous ports on your router.
Step 01
Create a Tailnet
Sign up for a free account. This "Tailnet" is your private encrypted network. All devices you add will be assigned a permanent internal IP address.
Sign Up for Tailscale
Step 02
Install on Your Home Server

curl -fsSL https://tailscale.com/install.sh | shThen, authenticate and enable the exit node:
sudo tailscale up --advertise-exit-node
Step 03
Mobile & Remote Access
Install the app on your S25 Ultra. Log in, and you’ll see your home server. Use its Tailscale IP to access your self-hosted apps securely.
