Reliability is fine, performance is, depending on your demands, not. F the coordination server is not up to task of matching throughput of the two servers, and a lot of bytes need to be transferred, then it's noticable. But the tech at large works, depending on the implementation you choose to use. (I'm partial to Tailscale, although that's a different service, it lets me transfer files between computers (with additional SW) without manually mapping a port. They are using DERP for the coordination server.



I'm sorry but was your reply meant for me?

and if so was the reliable way DERP as you mentioned?


Yes, DERP is the protocol that Tailscale uses to pouch through NAT reliably by using a coodination server.
