I've read through your message about configuring Nextcloud on your Asus RT-AC88U router, and I have a suggestion that might simplify the process for you: Tailscale.
Tailscale is a secure network tool that makes it easy to connect your devices, even if they're behind firewalls or NATs. Here's how you can use Tailscale to access your Nextcloud server without dealing with port forwarding or DNS settings:
Install Tailscale: Start by installing Tailscale on your Asus RT-AC88U router and on the devices you want to access Nextcloud from (e.g., your computer, phone, tablet).
Create a Tailscale Network: Once installed, create a Tailscale network. This will allow your devices to communicate securely with each other over the internet.
Connect Devices: Join all your devices to the Tailscale network. This will give them unique IP addresses that can be used to communicate with each other.
Access Nextcloud: Now, instead of using the Asuscomm.com URL, you can access your Nextcloud server using the Tailscale IP address of your router. Tailscale provides a DNS name for your devices, making it easy to remember and access them.
By using Tailscale, you won't have to worry about port forwarding or DNS configuration. It's a simple and secure way to access your Nextcloud server from anywhere.
