new setup across vlans/subnets

[Neo]

Thanks for the reply.

Its so frustrating. I don't know where the issue is and I'm going round in circles. Not being familiar with any of these apps and never having had any of these elements working just means it could be any of them.
I thought by installing minimwatch, I could at least rule out 1 element, but was presented with more problems.

But it sounds hopeful that through using bubbleupnpserver I can perhaps treat my vlans/subnets as an internet connection.

My home lan is more complex than most I guess... with 10 vlans, 4 wifis, trunk ports feeding powelines with managed switches on the end, dns queries handled by a pi-hole
But I wouldn't sacrifice the setup for anything.

I thought this would be the easier bit and was leaving the internet connection with a phone running grapheneos till later which will definitely present more problems as many apps won't work properly because the OS has been degoogled, but now I'm questioning everything. Ooooooph
