I just use wireguard that’s built in to opnsense. Am I missing out on something ?
Yeah, same here. Played with tailscale, headscale and some other wireguard mesh tools. But I prefer the plain and simple wireguard setup. My network is not that big that I need yet an other tool for managing it.
No, but some people are stuck behind CG-NAT and can’t port forward to the outside world for wireguard. Things like Cloudflared, Tailscale and ZeroTier get past that.
It’s of course possible to use wireguard to a VPS and tunnel into that, but that’s a bit more technical to set up.
ISP have put me behind CG NAT few weeks ago, but I just called them and they turned it off in 10 min. Hard part was to find out whats the issue since I had no clue about CG NAT. WG ftw
Yeah that’s what I do as well. I try to avoid tying my services to a company that can change their licensing terms. I’m trying to be self hosted after all!
