Hello, I want to access my local Umbrel from anywhere. I used Tailscale, and it works for me, but I want to access it through an IP or DNS. I tried using Ngrok, and it works, but it only displays the dashboard and settings. When I try to access any app, like Lightning, it does not open. what I should do any suggestions
