Using EC2 for hiding my home public IP when hosting a game server

Hello,

I'm hosting a game server from my spare laptop at home and I'm trying to use an EC2 instance to proxy from my home public IP and route it through the EC2 IP so I don't reveal my home public IP to the masses.

I'm stuck on getting the traffic through the proxy. I have the correct port open in the inbound rules via my home router and in the AWS security groups and I can successfully run the game server natively using my exposed public IP and the corresponding port so I know that's setup is correct.

I think where I'm getting stuck is the sslh requirements where I have to edit the file in nano via the terminal (I'm using PuTTy to ssh into the server).

I've found an article on how to sort of set it up but it's about 3 years old and might be inaccurate now.

If anyone has done this successfully or knows of an article they can point me to for assistance that would be much appreciated.

Thanks!
