Hello, I want to setup a VPN to dial up my home. I’m having trobules with my WRT3200ACM, and other firmwares aren’t working fine for me due to the oddities of this particular router.
Would you recommend me another router? I’d like to setup an OpenVPN or Wireward + some dynamic DNS updater in it.
Take a look at Tailscale. You can probably do what you want using that and basically any router out there since it’s zero-config in the router, you’re hardware independent.
I can second this. The only issue out of the box from my experience was getting speeds over 100Mbps working over WiFi, takes a bit of configuring (at least it did for my router).
Do you have any other requirements for the router? Or just to be able to run a VPN? When you say VPN, are you looking just to encrypt your home network (create your own VPN) or to use a paid service? E.g. VPN client or server?
I’m looking to dial in my home to reach some servers I expect to have running there. I could go the raspberry way, but I’d prefer it to be a router. I have some cloud servers for my own development that I’d like to host myself And maybe one of those services would be exposed.
Most decent routers should support that. I personally use a Unifi Dream Machine which I can’t fault. Previously used a Nighthawk router which also supported it.
