Answer: running into a limitation with Cloudflare Tunnels—they only support TCP, and I need UDP to host my service. I’d like

This question has been unanswered for over 48 hours.


Question:


running into a limitation with Cloudflare Tunnels—they only support TCP, and I need UDP to host my service. I’d like to expose an IP/port combo without:


A static public IP (I’m behind NAT/CGNAT)
Installing any client software on the user’s end
Spinning up or maintaining a VPS

Ideally the solution would be free or very low-cost.


Has anyone found a workaround or alternative that:

Supports UDP traffic
Traverses NAT/CGNAT seamlessly
Requires no additional client on the user’s side
Doesn’t force you to run your own VPS

RAW

> [Cloudflared] doesn't support UDP as a protocol unfortunately... which is my goal. havn't seen any good workarounds for using cloudflare's tunnels for this without needing to install their client software on the user end


any other ideas off the top of your head for opening up an IP/port combo without needing static public IP (easily traverse NAT/CGNAT)? preferably free, cloudflare was appealing as one less VPS to keep updated, etc
