Why add the third party? Just run an instance of wireguard on your home network and call it a day.
Because Tailscale uses Wireguard, but doesn’t rely on my inept ass to know what I’m doing.
Fair, lol.
Because that's physically impossible for tons of people. CGNATs are very common.
Well nothing is impossible, but it does complicate things very much. Certainly outside "just run a container and call it a day" territory.
Can you explain that to an idiot like myself? I'm running TailScale right now and I have my own router in front of my ISP's. Is there a good, simplistic guide for my setup?
The easiest way is with pivpn
https://www.pivpn.io/
I've tried that, but it's broken my Pi-hole install twice. To the point of needing dev intervention. I assumed it wasn't working for everybody until you mentioned it
I've never had an issue with pihole (i run them on the same device). Pivpn ibstaller typically detects pihole and juat sets it up as pivpn dns but you could also have it not do this in the installer
Yeah, I have no clue where it went wrong and I'm not exactly technical enough to diagnose it
Best move is to try to do pivpn installer again and when it says we found a pihole installation do you want to use pihole with pivpn say no. If it still breaks uninstall pihole, install pivpn l, then reinstall pihole
I installed mine on OPNsense. I used the OPNsense documentation: https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/how-tos/wireguard-client.html. Here is another guide: https://www.comparitech.com/blog/vpn-privacy/road-warrior-vpn-wireguard-opnsense/. And yet another if you want to set it up in docker: https://linuxiac.com/how-to-set-up-wireguard-vpn-with-docker/. However, the firewall rules can get a bit messy.
Thank you, I'll give it a go
