Comment on [question] Help me access my local homeserver using a public domain name

Given your setup, I presume you’re trying to access your server via a domain name, from within your home network?

Or maybe your example IP address is just confusing. IP addresses in the ranges 192.168.0.0/16, 172.16.0.0/12, and 10.0.0.0/8 are all reserved for “private routing” and are not routable on the larger internet.Your home will gave devices with those IP addresses because it’s a private LAN that uses Network Address Translation (NAT) at the boundary with your ISP. Your ISP might also have it’s own NAT called Carrier-Grade NAT (CGNAT) that has another translation boundary where it reaches the internet. If your ISP doesn’t have CGNAT, and allows incoming connections on your desired ports, you !at be able to use the IP address your ISP assigned your router as the pubic IP, but if not you’ll need to figure out some other routing method (e.g. VPS hosting a private VPN exit point with routing rules to allow incoming and entry point somewhere in your network with routing rules to reply thru that VPN).
