Control Your Light Show From ANYWHERE in the WORLD!

Video Description

In today's video, we take a look at 2 different methods to control your light show and it's devices from ANYWHERE in the world! This includes your Falcon Player devices, pixel controllers, and anything else you use your network to connect to. Method 1 works by using port forwarding to directly connect to your device with a DDNS hostname. Method 2 works by setting up a VPN with OpenVPN on your router to connect to your home network from anywhere. Both methods need a DDNS hostname, so we also look at how to create one of those as well!
