• Very helpful video thank you!

• Yep, Wireguard impressed me … and they did integrated it inside linux kernel … which give us total control of our own configuration ..

  Traditional way is more reliable when it comes to Zero-Trust …

• If your behind CGNAT and therefore dont have a public IPv4 Adress couldnt you just host it via IPv6?

• For the IP changing, I wanted to limit the access a DDNS service had on my DNS registrar, so I got a free Pulesway RMM account, that let you monitor 2 devices and when the RMM agent on my server detects an IP chnage I get an email and alert via the app on my phone and then change the DNS record manually, a 2 min job.

• I've been using this for a year or more now. It's great that with Android at least it adds the wireguard tunnel into a quick access button next to my wifi and torch. Don't even have to open the app to turn it on, it's been great.

• twingate is a good alternative to vpn

• I have this setup successfully setup on my Pi4 with wireguard. But why can't I see my NAS server on my VPN?

• I was excited by how easy pivpn was until I couldn't get any packets, then discovered CGNAT is a thing and Starlink uses it 🙁 Time to struggle through manually setting up wireguard on a vps, lol

• but very slow my isp throttle and get less than 1mbps

• how many devices can be connected at the same time ??

• One option to deal with IP address changing is to setup a TOR hidden service which can serve as a backup if your IP changes.

• I already had Pi-Hole installed. I followed this video after pausing, replaying at a slow speed to see what I was missing. I was able to get the VPN running perfectly on my Pi 4 Model B with my Samsung 22 Ultra. It worked so effortlessly on the first try. Now I can use public wifi and not be worried about people monitoring what I an doing. Thanks for posting this video.

• 5:04 How do I grab my ip again? When I do a curl request on that site, it said that I have to pay to request it.

• SCP is just a (really useful) CLI for SFTP

• Why spend a hundred plus dollars on a raspberry pi when , as I've done in the uk , spend only 1.20 gbp per month ( roughly a dollar) on could space with a public ip and unlimited traffic ? 12 dollars a yr is way better than a 100 dollars on rpi any day

• I will stick to the real pie😊

• I just uploaded PiVPN case for Raspberry Zero 2 W to Printables if someone is using PiVPN Zero wirelessly. Would've thrown link for PiVPN creators, but I don't have github and don't want to pester devs 🙂

• Does anyone know exactly how to get the client set up on a Linux-based machine, i.e. Ubuntu? There's no select-and-click option as there's no official GUI, and I'm struggling trying to parse exactly what I'm supposed to do with the scp'd file using the WireGuard CLI.

• Any chance to run this on a android phone instead of Raspberry pi ?

• It's all fun and games until you have a 4 layer cg nat 😢

• Nice, last time I came across PiVPN it was OpenVPN only. I think I'll take another look. Thanks Jeff!

• Your video 's great useful. Thank you so much !

• Thank you for this video. I recently found out about Tailscale and my jaw dropped with features like taildrop or seamleass user friendly experience.
