I am very new to home assistant and have very limited knowledge with computers, networks etc so please go easy on me.
i like the idea of building a smart home and am currently trying to learn if its something i can do so i am starting off as low budget as possible. I am running Homeassistant on a virtual box on an old windows laptop.
I’m hoping to be able to remotely access my Homeassistant as I would like to be able to turn off lights/ heating etc when not at home if I have forgotten to do so when leaving.
i ideally want do do this as low budget as possible and don’t want to pay for the Homeassistant Cloud at this point.
i have attempted to set up Cloudflare following several different methods but am currently using; How tos · brenner-tobias/addon-cloudflared Wiki · GitHub
the tunnel seems to connect for a brief amount of time before I then consistently get the following error.
