   Recently, I got the headsup on tailscale. It's a pretty nifty     
   almost-zero-config personal VPN for the purposes of     
   establishing secure and encrypted tunnels over your own     
   machines as a custom network.   
      
   Prior to tailscale, I was using AnyDesk cuz it just worked and     
   did not need any port forwarding pre-considerations. (My router     
   has a broken port-forwarding feature - the settings didn't     
   stick - but AnyDesk overcame that.   
      
   At some point AnyDesk deemed my usage commercial primarily     
   because I was using it too regularly.  :(   
      
   Then there was several months of time that I wasn't using     
   anything at all and lived without the need to reach my remote     
   machines for transferring files or observing processes.   
      
   But tailscale is looking like a great solution!   
      
   I can launch a VNC connection from my remote pc to my home pc.   
      
   A VNC connection from my home pc to my remote pc is having an     
   issue but I can work around it by accessing the Filezilla-    
   server on the remote to transfer files to and from home.   
      
   I am operting Win7 systems on both remote and home pc.   
      
   Tailscale is availble for Win, iOS, MacOS, Android, Linux   
      
   See https://tailscale.com/   
      
   For a simple home "network" of machines, the free offering     
   could be all that one needs.   
      
   Tailscale takes care of the networking authenticated machines.     
   After that, you can reach any service that any machine supports     
   whether it is VNC, Remote Desktop, SSH, FTP, etc..  and you     
   have a fully secure, and encrypted personal VPN.
