If your router works for everything but that, I would recommend looking into Tailscale instead of a Wireguard VPN or run a Cloudflare tunnel as a service on the Debian host. Tailscale is free for personal use and is Wireguard under the hood with an orchestrator bolted on. I have done just about everything here has said at some point. I'm running a 10Gbps capable OPNSense firewall. For services outside my network I have several LXC containers with Cloudflare tunnels (broken out by service type) and I have Tailscale installed on one of my physical Debian hosts as an exit node.
If you just want access to everything while your out, Tailscale for your devices. If you want friends to be able to access, then Cloudflare tunnel. Neither require buying anything new.
