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.
Tailscale uses wireguard with custom modification (to distribute key, use relay, use TCP). It's not the same protocol as plain native wireguard.
