Create your OWN Home-Lab Tunnel with Pangolin NOW | Free VPS

Video Description

Bypass Cloudflare Tunnel's 100MB file upload limit by setting up a custom tunnel using Oracle's always free tier services. This tutorial provides step-by-step instructions for creating a virtual private server and configuring the tunnel, all at no cost, utilizing the Oracle Cloud always free services. Learn how to leverage these services to overcome file size limitations. Pangolin is a combination of a Traefik reverse proxy and Gerbil tunnel which uses Wireguard to communicate between the VPS and your own self hosted connector. Traefik makes it easy to add invaluable plugins such as CrowdSec and GeoIP Blocking which I'll show you have to configure in this tutorial.
