I would like to be able to access HA remotely. The Ha cloud “free” service is reporting “out of stock”. Mmmm.

So my thoughts are:-

    • VPN with Digital Ocean
    • NGINX on my LAN
    • DDNS service redirecting to open ports on my LAN router.

Thing is, the main driver for this is to see my live video streams from my RSTP cameras. But streaming the five cameras I have will need a capable solution. In this regard, I was thinking that whatever my choice is, the bottleneck will be my 20Mpbs upload on my ISP broadband, no?
In other words, why pay someone like Diigital Ocean and setup a VPS VPN with 500Mpbs download, when my LAN server can only upload at 20Mpbs from my camera?

So is there any point in hosting HA on a cloud server or even my own LAN, when the bottleneck is my ISP upload speed.
Might as well setup a DDNS account and install a firewall on my router, or better still setup GINX on a LAN server,?

What do we think?
