Strps to set up my own VPN:

  1. Navigate to my router’s configuration page
  2. Select Configure VPN server
  3. Click Generate Certificate button
  4. Download certificate
  5. Enable VPN networking on my device
  6. Import downloaded certificate

It’s that simple. If you don’t have your own firewall, you can just deploy Tailscale on all devices you want to be able to communicate with each other, which uses Wireguard under the hood.

As someone who manages a tailscale network at my work...I just want to point out that tailscale is a tiny bit more complicated than just downloading and installing. Not much but...

That said the ability to automate wireguard connections is wonderful and everyone should check it out.
