Do you have a better alternative you can recommend? My upload rate isn't all that good so I would like to avoid having more traffic than necessary leaving my network if the target is within my network anyway.
Outside hosting isn't really something I want to consider. I didn't mention this in my post but this setup is for my media server which needs a lot of storage space. I don't know about the pricing for a VPS but I am pretty sure it isn't as cheap as I would want it. Also uploading my media to a VPS with my upload rate would take a lot of time whenever I want to add something new.
Using two hostnames for accessing the same service isn't really an option either unfortunately. The specific part I'm trying to set up is a navidrome server for music. The app I use to access the server is called Symfonium and can only add one address per media server. I could get around that by adding multiple media sources but that would result in all of my media appearing twice in searches.
