wireguard-install VS wg-easy

after that u can simply run this script https://github.com/Nyr/wireguard-install that helps you automatically install wireguard and create a config ( to add more configs just run it again ). This script also generates QR code that you can simply scan by ur phone

I currently have WG set up on a Linode Ubuntu server (installed from https://github.com/Nyr/wireguard-install) with Pihole setup in the background. I have everything working just fine, except for some websites showing as "Page cannot be displayed". I've looked up in the subreddit and some have recommended changing the MTU (which I've tried on server/client), but that doesn't resolve the issue. In Pihole, it shows that it responds correctly. I did enable IPv6, but this happened before adding IPv6. Running curl from SSH to access the affected site, it tells me 301 Site moved permanently. Here's the server config:

As for the VPN: I always use this installer on a raspy pi (you can do this on a virtual machine): https://github.com/Nyr/wireguard-install But that is only because I hate having to set up keys.

So I got a Libre AML-S905X-CC (Le Potato) to play around with but all the ideas I see online are about emulating games, running a nas, running ad blocker, vpn server, 3d printer, website hosting. All these just seem like these would be better to run on an actual server or the ideas are lame, basic, and overused. I just want some useful things that only these single board computers can do to justify their purpose. I like stuff like the PiKVM or wireless usb like VirtualHere. The Arduino has their spot for robotics and what not, but what do SBC have to offer besides being small and broad purpose? Stuff like can I make it auto start my car in the morning, attached it to a pcie port on my pc, make a cellular wifi hotspot modem thing, make a smart tv, make a robot with AI, bypass wifi router settings, make a smart door deadbolt or smart window blinds, AI caht bots, transmit landline calls to the internet, drones with facial recognition, spy balloons, kiss under the bicycle racks in walmart, watch the rat movie that cooks food, ratatoot toot, overthrow the government? Those types of ideas are stuff I see as useful but also I want to look up later if those are something that exists already.

After browsing through, I've noticed that three options seem to be gaining traction: Netmaker, wg-easy, and headscale. I'm curious to know if these solutions are interchangeable, and if there are specific reasons to choose one over the others. I'd also like to understand if they are complete stacks, meaning, once set up, could I easily replace one admin GUI with another, or would I need to tear down and rebuild the VPN?

WireGuard is the solution to everything! It has an app and they can easily login via a QR code that you send them. For the server I would recommend wg-easy, there you can manage all user accounts in a web interface.

I use this, https://github.com/WeeJeWel/wg-easy

Dashboard with access to the QR and config files for clients as well as bandwidth data. Even something as simple as wg-easy would be great.

I run wg-easy https://github.com/WeeJeWel/wg-easy for this sort of thing. I use the docker container, and it's great. "Just works".

Also, unrelated, I just decided I don't like the sentiment of "PiMyProjectName" branding. I know most projects don't just run on a Pi, and that the intent is to say "you can self-host thing", but at this point if you want to run a home server sort of thing, just buy some cheap 100-200 dollar minipc thing. That's how much you'd pay for a Pi now anyway, and it comes with such great features as:

* just establishing an ssh connection doesn't take multiple seconds

* the ethernet doesn't go over a usb hub

* it doesn't run on an sd card that is going to fail within a year

I'm pretty dismissive of ARM chips for homelab stuff at this point. There's super cheap minipcs with "real" processors that will just destroy even an expensive ARM board.

Pi's shine with their ability to run both a real/full Linux and also do gpio type stuff that otherwise is usually an arduino board. I don't have anything against low-level programming but damn is it just a lot more fun to do in python. I love the Rpi zero w 2 products for this, just enough juice to run wifi and a python loop, plus the gpio pins. Too bad they've been sold out for literally years.

J'ai installé Wireguard Server sur un VPS en utilisant [https://github.com/weejewel/wg-easy Peer to Peer Ping, mais je ne peux pas ping-ping à des pairs du serveur.

To expand: I'd recommend wireguard it's super easy to run with docker, openvpn is way more annoying to setup The Github page for wg-easy docker image
