Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.
-
No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

Just so you know, you can remote config your Xfinity cable modem (blecch) using their app or by logging into your account.
Yea, their modems are trash of the first order. You'd actually be better of buying your own modem and then using your own router behind it.
That out of the way, it's really strange they're resetting your modem completely. I've used them for probably 10 years in one location and haven't seen that.
Not saying you're wrong - it's your setup. It's just strange.
You could always run something like Tailscale on one machine, then you'd always have a route into your network which you could use to reconfigure the modem.
It's a poor rat that ain't got 2 holes.
Actually, it’s not acan, you have to. They removed almost everything from the modems admin page. Even then though, the issue is that my server is connected over MoCA, which doesn’t show up on their port forwarding thing, it has to be directly connected via Ethernet to port forward to it. So I had to physically move the server to the modem, plug it in, and add my port forwards
I checked the other day and you can now re-enable the local web admin interface.
I know, pissed me off when they removed it a while back.
Cocksuckers.
Hmm, that's some shitty software in there that doesn't see MOCA properly. Not sure how to work around that.
I don’t think they ever removed it. It’s just… there’s hardly anything there. For example, if you go to the port forwarding page, it says you have to use their app.
