I use wireguard back to a pfsence box. I don't notice any increased battery drain
I just need access to my home network, so it dose the job.
That sounds good! Any quick instructions for that? I couldn't figure it out earlier and zerotier/tailscale seemed a lot easier.
Tailscale uses Wireguard under the hood. ZeroTier uses something of their own.
I assume Wireguard would only be as good as Tailscale regarding your battery problems.
WireGuard alone don’t have this Batterie drain problem. Have it 24/7 on without issues.
me too, using the wireguard Clent.
I didn't say it did. I'm saying that whatever is going on now with ZeroTier for this person will likely remain the same after switching to WireGuard.
