Private VPN
Hello folks,
My new job requires lot of travel, airports and hotels with free unsecured WiFi. Is there a way to setup VPN on OpenBSD . I searched OpenBSD manual on VPN and I am not sure if it would works properly if I don't know what the other client is Windows, Linux, Mac, Android. Any suggestion on this would be greatly appreciated. I am running OpenBSD 6.9 on my Lenovo ThinkPad T530 (amazing combo) thank you Ludovit |

I will setup WireGuard. Ludovit |

Agreed on WireGuard. Very easy to set up. I used to run IKEv2 using the details in the OpenBSD FAQ (https://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq17.html), but WireGuard is easier.

I setup WireGuard on my server and my laptop. Server is connected with cable to Wi-Fi
router and laptop thru Wi-Fi card. When VPN is activated and both sides shows handshake with wg0 , also can be pinged from both directions. Problem is I loose internet connection on laptop. rtwn0 is wifi card that normally connect to internet, but thru wg0 is isolated. Maybe I need to connect from outside of my wifi network? What I try to accomplish is to have safe VPN when I travel , airports , hotels etc. I am just trying to test it at home before I travel again. Any help would be appreciated. Ludovit |

Thanks jggimi,
Yes, that is my current topology as you mentioned. I will play with routing now. Ludo |

Just my 5 cents.
I use openvpn. Not to hard to install a server and easy to do a client config. If you are looking for a cheap server there are multiple videos on how to do an openvpn server on a raspbery pi. If you have a server at home you can connect to it easily or there are routers that can do openvpn, so its easiest if you have an openvpn capable router. |
