  • Wireguard - how are you generating client configurations for your users?
    1 project | /r/TPLink_Omada | 26 Aug 2023
    My previous experience was using this wireguard-ui container, super easy to create clients, and spits out a config file and/or QR code. Couldn't be any easier and removes all of the mumbo jumbo from the client's hands. And how that I'm looking at that package again I think I could potentially map it to the router's API, assuming there is one available for the VPN configs.

    you can always setup wireguard on your vps. its not that hard, this article by digital ocean article is quite thorough. That article has a lot on information so it looks harder than it actually is. You could also use something like this to help set things up faster. ive used that ui before but dont actively host it, only when i need to add peers. If you do actively host the ui make sure you dont expose it to the internet. Not because there is some security issue just because its imo not best practice. You can also use hamachi or any of the other hamachi like services

  • Add WireGuard VPN on my exicting PI-hole+unbound ubuntu DNS server on my old laptop.
    3 projects | /r/pihole | 23 Oct 2022
    Personally, I’ve stopped using pi VPN quite a while ago. I’ve only used there console interface. Don’t know if there’s a official GUI by now. But there are a few gui alternatives available. I’ve been using this: https://github.com/ngoduykhanh/wireguard-ui

What are some alternatives?
