I have several machines that need direct in/out traffic through router port forwarding.
I have things setup already right now, using my domain name , pointing at my current static IP issued by the ISP.

But I will be transferring to another ISP and they don’t offer static IPs. What’s worst is the IPs issued are not only dynamic, but also private (so dynamic dns solution can’t help)

So I need a way to maintain my exact setup (and port forwards) on the new ISP and I’m willing to pay for VPN like service if I have to. But I heard routing traffic through VPNs will slow down traffic which is my concern. I’m assuming VPN traffic is slow because of it having to hop around lots of proxy servers? If there was a VPN that just gives you static IP w/o proxy hopping, that would be best. I don’t need the privacy, i just need the static IP and speed.

Looking forward to some helpful suggestions.

    What do you mean the addresses are private? Are you double NAT-ed?

    As others have mentioned, tailscale or Cloudflare tunnels can solve your problem

      The IP address they issued me isn’t accessible publicly, and port-forwarding isn’t possible.

      I’ll look into these altertnatives, thanks
