WireGuard VPN Client preloaded

[Aaron, N3MBH]

A possible solution might be to use a small travel route. I have used GL-iNet routers and they support Wireguard profiles. I do the opposite and have a VPN profile setup on my devices and I can VPN back into my home router (Unifi UDMP) and access anything on my network like it was local including my ORP test setup. I can use any number of options once in my network like file sharing, remote desktop/VNC, SSH, etc. I find this vastly more flexible and sure to do at the router level.

OpenRepeater is offered free of charge. Find out how you can support us.

My current plan is to have one of the T-Mobile home internet modules at the controller and just plug the Pi directly into it, without a router. Trying to keep the amount of equipment at a site reduced to a minimum. I’ve got WireGuard installed on my laptops and cell phones and it works great for a single device connecting back to my home network.

That is my thought process, but I’m sure I can scrounge up a spare mikrotik and set it between the T-mobile and the Pi.

I just installed it to mine. Did not seem to cause any issues.

Cody, how did you load it? Go in through SSH and load it directly via the OS and bypass OpenRepeater interface?

[Cody, WRVY789]

Yes, and I added it to systemd so it starts on boot.
