  • Thanks This looks like exactly what I need. Installation seems easy enough. How do I configure it afterwards?

  • Thanks I haven't seen this guide before. It looks easy enough to follow

  • Thanks I will try running Wireguard on pi4. I never considered tin-clients before. What kind of OS these have? Can they run VPN clients?

  • I checked OpenWRT table of hardware and there were some Asus and Mikrotik models that are available where I live but I don't know which one to buy that sufficient hardware for running ovpn clients

  • I checked GL.inet is not available where I live

  • Thanks but this is VPN server setup not a client

  • What should I buy that supported by OpenWRT?

  • I think you're right. I guess I need a wired router that can run OpenVPN on stock firmware or supported by and OpenWRT can be installed on it and has the hardware needed to run OpenVPN clients. The problem is I don't know what to buy now and honestly where I live there are not many options

  • Thanks but I think you misunderstood. I don't want to run a VPN server I want to run a openVPN client on a router

  • Makes sense Well explained thanks. I guess I'll find a dedicated VPN router

  • Can I run OpenVPN configs on it and use it as a roiter

  • I already have a pi4B just wanted to find a use case for it. Is it really that bad? so how consumer routers with a fifth computing power run vpns?

  • LibreTube and materialious both have de-arrow and SponsorBlock implemented

  • Good point Thanks I'm will test mint in a VM for a while then dual boot mint beside Windows

  • Wow I didn't expect such elaborate explanation thanks you're awesome Then mint is where my journey begins

  • I think you're right maybe debian is suited to some applications which really prioritizes stability over everything. which distro do you suggest dual boot on a three year old Windows laptop (I have two separate ssd drives on it so it's safe for dual booting). I did a little research on it and seems like everyone suggests fedora or mint but you use secure blue. Which one should I go with?

  • Honestly I'm just not sure about Debian being insecure take that being said I run Windows on my devices and never used Linux before (I need coporate CAM/CAD software I should try dual booting but I'm too lazy😅) so maybe you're right I just don't know

  • Thanks Very informative I agree with almost all your takes here

  • There are 4 privacy respecting VPNs out there: Mullvad, Proton VPN, IVPN, Windscribe. As for my opinion I have been using Windscribe for years now and it's been great but I have a specific use case for a VPN so I need one regardless of the privacy aspect. My point is if you want a VPN just for the hypothetical privacy gains in my opinion you're wasting time and money.
