Homelab WireGuard VPN

WireGuard is a fast, modern VPN protocol. It is the right choice for remote access to a home network — simpler to configure than OpenVPN and faster than most alternatives.

All configuration examples show common setups. Review each command — especially the iptables forwarding rules and key file permissions — before applying them to your system, and make changes in a maintenance window.

When to Use

  • Setting up WireGuard server on a Raspberry Pi, Linux host, pfSense, or router
  • Generating WireGuard keypairs and writing peer config files
  • Configuring remote access from a phone or laptop to a home network
  • Explaining split tunneling (route only home traffic) vs full tunnel (route all traffic)
  • Troubleshooting WireGuard connections that will not come up
  • Automating peer configuration generation for multiple clients
