Let’s use a Hidden Service created via Tor network! We don’t really need anonymity in this case, but it comes as a nice bonus. There is another way, which I find quite easy and elegant at the same time. This problem is usually solved by port forwarding on a router that has the public IP, but this is not very usable in more complex network environments.Īnother option is to create a VPN where you connect your node, but this requires quite a big effort to get it working (both server and client side). Have you ever tried to solve the following problem? I did.

The issue is that this node usually lies behind NAT, does not have a public IP, its local IP keeps changing or even worse even the public IP is changed by ISP from time to time. You have just finished installing a brand new Internet node, but you need to connect to it (usually using SSH) to perform some tasks. If you want to set up Homebridge on a Raspberry Pi, here’s what you’ll need to do.Pavol Rusnak #cypherpunk #hacker #openhw #privacy #bitcoin #creativeAI Running SSH on a Raspberry Pi as a Hidden Service with Tor With this in mind, enter Homebridge, an open-source, third-party solution for Apple HomeKit-friendly devices (as well as others), allowing you to control and operate them without another Apple device.Ĭombine Homebridge with the low-powered Raspberry Pi microcomputer and you're free to build an Apple-friendly automated home at a fraction of the cost. Many manufacturers insist on using a branded app to configure and control smart home tech, with patchy compatibility with voice-activated systems like Siri, Google Home, or Amazon Alexa.Ĭombine Homebridge with the low-powered Raspberry Pi microcomputer and you're free to build an Apple-friendly automated home at a fraction of the cost.Īpple users are left behind, with Apple's own automation system (Apple HomeKit) costing more and with more stringent requirements for hardware developers to consider implementing. Home automation is growing in popularity, but one of the biggest hurdles is compatibility between devices.
