You don't need a vpn for this, plex has servers to let you connect to your home computer. I believe it's called remote connection . Check it out in your plex server settings.
One of the things that can prevent it from working is called double Nat where your server is behind multiple routers on your network, there are many guides for how to resolve this.
For me it was CG-NAT. Pretty much the same as the double NAT HeavyRaptor has pointed out, just now something you fix yourself.
I am lucky and for a reasonable price can have a fixed IP for my broadband.
That made Jellyfin work perfectly, over a VPN using Wireguard.
It was more difficult setting up Wireguard than it was getting Jellyfin working!
