Does anyone have a guide to Traefik for an absolute idiot (myself)?

I was able to get a freshrss server running using dockercompose and was able to connect to it on my local network, but all the guides I read said I NEED to have a reverse proxy before I access it remotely.

This is probably my sign I need to actually learn how to use docker instead of being lazy as hell and copy/pasting code, but I thought I’d ask.

    Do you have some guides to share regarding local redirect ? I have some troubles accessing my services from my phone when I am at home and it forces me to turn on the VPN, I couldn’t fine a solution so far…

      I don’t have a guide at hand but I basically just set a wildcard DNS rewrite on AdGuard Home so that *.my.domain redirects to the IP running my reverse proxy. Since AdGuard is set up at the router level, everything goes through it so the proxy handles everything from there.
      I can share specifics after I get home in a few hours if you need a hand, feel free to reach out.

        Oh, I see. I have Pihole setup as a local DNS, but this works only partially, because my ISP router sucks and I have no control over it… basically, it works perfectly for wired connections, buy devices connected via WiFi will more often than not bypass Pihole and get a DNS server directly from the router (via IPv6).

          Right, that’s a bummer. I’m guessing you don’t have enough access to turn off your router’s DHCP server so pihole can take over properly? If that’s the case, I guess you’d have to get another router and make your own subnet off the ISP one or something along those lines so you have more control, that’s kinda what my setup looks like at the moment.

            Yes, that’s right. My ISP offers another router providing more complete control, for more money of course.

              Gotta love ISPs. I ended up getting myself a good router on my own and having it piggyback off the ISP provided one so I could actually change settings around. Not ideal but it’s something. As a bonus, my subnet always looks the same and whatnot, a godsend for self-hosting.
