Is there any possibility to get wireguard working to access my raspberry pi from outside my home? I’ve port forwarded the wireguard udp port and it doesn’t work… Likely because I’m behind a NAT. My wan public ip is like 10.x.x.x which is most likely a private ip. Running tailscale for now
I’m in the same boat so I setup a $2.50/mo VPS and that’s my gateway. It took a little bit to get the nftables on vps to work right. I’d recomemned tailscale or similar if you want easy, though I’ve not ever used them myself.
What would be the added latency. I was thinking of doing something like this and I could get a 3$ month VPS about 30km from where I live. I was thinking of doing something like that for remote gaming on my powerful desktop. Annoyingly I have cgnat and a IPv6 from where I live and no IPv6 from where I want to access it.
At best it will add whatever the extra hop is and any network congestion. My VPS host is 2200km away. I should find a closer one… but it adds 160ms with some spikes in the 200-300 range. This is round trip 4400km roughly All things considered not too bad. My VPS is a 1vCPU, 1GB ram, 1Gbit unmetered, only as wireguard server. Hope that helps.
The VPS I would book would be the same and the CPU is a unnamed intel 2.6 ghz, so that sounds good.
Another thing is if where you want to access it from has a IPv6 then you can just connect via IPv6.
