I tried setting up a Wireguard VPN for myself but failed to figure it out. I’m definitely going to give this a look when I get some free time.

I used to run my own OpenVPN in the past, but have since switched to the free ProtonVPN tier with wireguard.

One usecase for me is accessing local video streaming services for my kids when traveling (they are geoblocked outside of the country). Other than that, I’m mostly using Tor for privacy purposes these days.

You can try this, it should be working for you. If you prefer, there’s also a FreeBSD version linked at the beginning of the blog post.

For server-to-server connection is great. For username/password authentication, it’s surely not the best tool
