SSL made easy.
We Proxy.
You stay in control.
SSLRouter is not hosting. We’re a Proxy: we help route traffic and apply SSL/TLS cleanly so your services get a proper HTTPS front door without turning your stack into a mess.

Why SSLRouter Exists
SSLRouter exists because SSL should not be this hard. After fighting with certificates, broken renewals, dynamic DNS, port numbers in URLs, and services that simply refused to validate, it became obvious the problem wasn’t SSL — it was how people were being forced to deploy it.
The breaking point was needing to expose services using subdomains with port numbers, only to discover that SSL certificates will not properly validate against that model. That limitation alone breaks countless home labs, mobile streams, and self-hosted services.
SSLRouter fixes this by acting as a clean proxy layer in front of your services. Whether your backend is on a static IP, dynamic DNS, a home server, a cloud VM, or even a mobile phone broadcasting live, SSLRouter provides a proper HTTPS front door — no ports in the URL, no hacks, no compromises.
You keep control of your infrastructure. We simply make SSL routing work the way it always should have.
Real-World Problems SSLRouter Solves
Case 1: Home Lab Behind Dynamic DNS
A developer runs multiple services from a home lab using dynamic DNS. Certificates constantly break when IPs change, and exposing services requires awkward ports in URLs. SSLRouter provides a stable HTTPS front door, proxying traffic cleanly without caring whether the backend IP changes or not.
Case 2: Proxmox / Self-Hosted Admin Panels
Management interfaces like Proxmox, NAS dashboards, and internal tools often run on non-standard ports that do not play well with SSL. SSLRouter terminates TLS properly and proxies traffic internally, allowing secure access without modifying the original services.
Case 3: Mobile Live Streaming From a Phone
A user wants to broadcast live video directly from a phone on a mobile network. The IP changes constantly and SSL validation fails. SSLRouter acts as a fixed HTTPS endpoint, securely routing traffic to the phone regardless of carrier, NAT, or IP changes.
Case 4: Small Business With Mixed Hosting
A small business runs some services on-prem, others in the cloud, and a few legacy systems that cannot be altered. SSLRouter unifies everything behind consistent HTTPS URLs without requiring migration, rewrites, or re-engineering.
Case 5: The Port Number Problem
A user exposes services using subdomains with port numbers, only to discover SSL certificates will not validate that model. SSLRouter removes ports from public URLs entirely by proxying traffic correctly — solving the problem at the routing layer instead of fighting certificate limitations.
What SSLRouter actually does
We do not host your services. We Proxy traffic and help apply SSL/TLS so your endpoints stay clean and secure.
Clean HTTPS endpoints
Turn messy ports into clean URLs. TLS terminates at the Proxy and routes to your internal services.
Reliable Proxy Service
Headers, timeouts, and routing patterns that play nice with real apps, dashboards, and APIs.
Access control options
Basic auth or IP allowlists where it matters. Publish what you intend — not what scanners discover.
Use cases
Perfect for people running services already — and just want SSL/TLS + routing done right.
Expose an internal app safely
Run your service on any port. Proxy it behind https://name.sslrouter.com.
Lock down admin panels
Keep admin tools reachable to you, not the whole internet — without changing the app itself.
One clean front door
Everything gets a tidy HTTPS URL. Your apps stay untouched on the inside.
Stop dealing with cert chaos
Centralize TLS termination and routing, and avoid “which service has which cert” headaches.

How SSLRouter works — from your backend to a live HTTPS endpoint.
How it works in four steps
Step 1 — Run Your Service Anywhere
Start with a service you already run — at home, in the cloud, in a container, on a NAS, or in a lab environment.
Your backend does not need HTTPS. It only needs to respond on HTTP at a reachable address and port.
Examples: http://192.168.1.50:3000 · http://10.0.0.12:8080
Step 2 — Point Your Domain to SSLRouter
Choose a domain or subdomain you control, such as app.yourdomain.com.
At your DNS provider, create an A record pointing that hostname to the SSLRouter server IP.
DNS must be in place before activation so SSL certificates can be issued.
Step 3 — Activate Your Domain
After subscribing, activate your domain at https://sslrouter.com/activate.
Enter the email used at checkout, the hostname you pointed to SSLRouter, and the backend URL to proxy traffic to.
SSLRouter automatically verifies your subscription, generates a proxy, issues a Let’s Encrypt certificate, and enables HTTPS.
Step 4 — Access Your Service Securely
Within seconds, your service is live at https://your-hostname.
SSLRouter terminates HTTPS, forwards traffic securely to your backend, and renews certificates automatically.
You keep full control of your service. SSLRouter handles SSL — nothing more.
