I live in a country where wireguard, openvpn and other vpn protocols have been blocked. Tailscale and Cloudflare Tunnels don’t wok either. I do have a public ip and my router supports DMZ and port forwarding. For security concerns I’m not willing to forward ports. Is there any other method to use my VPS to forward traffic to my home server?

    If you live in a country with the regular vpn protocols being blocked, you will need to be more specific with a vpn that obfuscates the network connection. Something like Astril or expressvpn will both have tunnel obfuscation. At that point it’s less about hiding your activity, and more about gaining access to other sites because I wouldn’t vouch for the privacy on those two vpns.

      ExpressVPN used to work but it got blocked too. I need a personal VPN solution to host on my own server. Currently we use Xray/V2ray to access restricted websites but they’re proxies, not proper VPNs.

        Express has been shit since forever.

        I’m assuming you’re in China? Astrill is using a proprietary vpn protocol and hardly ever has downtimes (use the stealth mode or install it on the router directly).

        As godless has stated, and I was also using astril when I was in China. For a personal option, I am not aware of a personal vpn that also includes obfuscation and is not using blocked vpn technologies/techniques.
