What can you do to access your tunnel?

For subdomains

If you have a subdomain such as myawesomesite.a.pinggy.online, you can still access your tunnels through myawesomesite.a.pinggy.link.

For custom domains

Log in to your DNS provider. Change the CNAME record for your custom domain from a .online domain to the same .link domain. For example, if your custom domain had a CNAME record myawesomesite.a.pinggy.online, then change it to myawesomesite.a.pinggy.link.
