My current plan is to have one of the T-Mobile home internet modules at the controller and just plug the Pi directly into it, without a router. Trying to keep the amount of equipment at a site reduced to a minimum. I’ve got WireGuard installed on my laptops and cell phones and it works great for a single device connecting back to my home network.
That is my thought process, but I’m sure I can scrounge up a spare mikrotik and set it between the T-mobile and the Pi.
I have looked into TightVNC, but everything I found shows that unless you have a DDNS redirect or some other way of the device tunneling back to your network, there isn’t a way to use it across the internet. Now I may not have looked at the correct version and may be missing something.
I’m open to any DDNS service, I’ve just been using No-Ip for years and am most familiar with it. Plus I know No-Ip has a free version, you just have to click “renew” every 30 or so days.
I believe the concept is a good concept, be it No-Ip or any other provider.
But, the other caveat, if WireGuard is installed, then a DDNS redirect is not needed because the Pi will use WireGuard and tunnel back to my home network and then it would be just another device on my network.
I was reading through this post because it interests me. I am interested in a full cross band repeat. The 2 bands I want to cross, I have not been able to locate a rig that offers the mode and the bands I want to use.
Would it even be possible to accomplish this task (full cross band) with this hardware and software?
