I currently have a server running Unraid as the OS, which has some WireGuard integration built in. Which I’ve enabled and been using to remotely access services hosted on that server. But as I’ve expanded to include things like Octopi running on a Pi3 and NextcloudPi running on a Pi4 (along with AdGuardHome), I’m trying to determine the best way to VPN to my home network with the goal of reaching services I’m hosting, and do it safely of course.
I have a Netgear Nighthawk that has some VPN functionality built in that uses a OpenVPN account. Is that ok or would it be advisable to come in a different way?

Most services are on the unraid box. But I had a pi running Pi-hole for a long time (switched to adguardhome) and wanted that separate from the main server in case it went down. Pis boot up a lot faster than my server hardware and then you still need to start the array and mount drives. Having AGH on a Pi as primary DNS means minimal internet outages caused by my tinkering. I was given the 4 and put it in a really cool case that can fit a M.2 or 2.5" SSD and boot from it. So that is NextcloudPi and AGH. The 3 is because my 3d printer is nowhere near a LAN connection and 3 has WiFi. The 4 is sitting next to my router. We won’t mention the 1B I’ve been messing with too…
ha, thats great! i got a couple of old dell R920s mirrored for ha, they take foreeever to boot.
but those containers, damn i love bein able to slap those containers around like theyre nothing… most restart in seconds
