Comment on Set up Tailscale with NGINX Proxy Manager

My big question…will this work on blocked locations, as in a router running behind cgnat? No open ports. Does Tailscale solve this?
Thanks!

To my understanding, yes! I touched on it in the post but since tailscale is a VPN that doesn’t require open ports to access other devices in the tailnet, you don’t need to worry about CGNAT

This is great news! I have some small project I’ll be taking in a location with cgnat, I’ll be visiting it in November. This will be of great help, thanks so much!

Happy to help!
Side note, if you want to make publicly available services, you could use cloudflare tunnels. They work in a similar way – letting your services be accessible over the Internet without needing to open ports. Some other people in the comments have mentioned that Tailscale funnel can also work for this, but i haven’t used it so I can’t really advise on that front
