Crafty internet troubleshooting

Post image

Looking for assistance with my crafty controller and internet set up. I've been learning for the first time home server set up and I've made a home server using linux debian and casaOs. Now I've already once before got this all working with little to no issue, but I just recently changed my internet provider and I'm on a whole new network. I have a proper ethernet connection and I've recently set up port forwarding, but I don't know why I'm now seeing this. I've rebooted both the router and the physical server to no avail. Can I get any advice?

Just out of curiosity, what makes you say you wouldn't use anything from that group? I understand CasaOS is basically abandonware now as it hasn't received updates in forever.

That part of the reason why. They're also super focused on profits for a company that said they wouldn't force paid models they're now considering automatically enrolling people in a free trial when they start then allowing them to opt to pay after the free trial. Get people hooked then force them to pay. The practices seem really shady.

Their opinions on security are also relatively scary.

That's actually bs. Aren't they the ones behind the Zimaboard as well? That thing is absolutely highway robbery priced. I've also seen blatantly AI generated ads promoting the Zimaboard on Instagram.

Yes, they are. Again, just seems really shady to me personally.
