Nice! How much RAM on that $3/mo VPS ?

Just to close the thread.
I got a VPS, Virtual Private Server. I already rent an external web server with hostpapa and adding this "feature" only cost me $3/month. It has a static ip and I use ssh -R to set up the tunnels for inbound traffic. It comes with a naked firewall, and I still need to do that. But so far it does what I need and I can get a standard residential plan and be good.
I've already been using systemd to maintain some ssh -R tunnels when I had my own ip. There are a few gotchas, but I have a couple of years of experience with that and it is pretty settled now. I'll just transfer that config to the new VPS.
TNX!

I have a fully functional intranet at home. DNS, KODI, NTP, in-house (literally) Cloud services. I don't have fiber or even reliable

Are any of you running servers at home? What kind of a plan to
you have? I'm looking at a business plan just so I can have an IP address. I"ve been on an old DSL plan for so long, things have really changed.
There is no fiber where I'm located, so I'm pretty sure my best
option is some kind of a 5G router.

It turns out, my network router and connection are really old.
I'm not sure what will be available in my zip.
