openVPN Synology vs Linux VM?

openVPN Synology vs Linux VM?

Any particular reason you wouldn’t go with Wireguard or a Wireguard based tunnel if you’re building this from scratch?

I only ask as it’s far more performant and battery friendly for mobile devices, if that’s a consideration for you.

No messing around with SSL certificates either.

Personally I run a couple of Wireguard tunnels on a Linux VM

I have not considered Wireguard yet. I had initially chosen the integrated openvpn solution with synology.

Do you know a good guide for Wireguard with linux? I would like to check it out. (yes i googled it but if you know one that works that would be great :D)

I can’t remember exactly what guide I used, but there’s a decent one from DigitalOcean.

I recommend using wg-quick like they have.

Can recommend this guide as well, very thorough.

There is also an guide on the wireguard website but it doesn’t explain every step quite as well.
