    Remote access

    I can't configure a reverse proxy. What method should I use: reverse proxy, vpn + reverse proxy or tailscale?

    If you go to https://whatismyipaddress.com/ again and if the IP is different than yesterday, that is a pretty good indicator that your USP uses CGNAT.

    I hope that's not it, but nothing else seems to make sense right now.
    That said, the IP hasn't changed and is still the same as it was yesterday and almost certainly the same as when I opened the post, two or three days ago. I'd even want to swear that the number rings a bell enough to say it hasn't changed in a while.

    Yeah, sure. Here it goes:
       

    These are the options:
       

    And this is what IP Alias row has:
       

    The other two options had IP addresses that I don't know if I should share. They are disable anyway.

    The router is Smart Wifi (HGU) GPT-2741GNAC

    One more thing I just remembered. When I did the installation of the Ethernet cables when I did the works in my house, all the cables converged in the living room, in a kind of “box” that was inside the wall.
    Originally the idea was to put the router in there, but, one, it was too big, and two, it got too hot, and I didn't want to leave that in there as a precaution.
    So I bought a switch (I think it was a switch, because it's a long time ago and I don't remember it very well), where I connected all the Ethernet cables in my house, and then one from the switch directly to the router.
    Could this have something to do with it?
