I want to move away from Cloudflare tunnels, so I rented a cheap VPS from Hetzner and tried to follow this guide. Unfortunately, the WireGuard setup didn’t work. I’m trying to forward all traffic from the VPS to my homeserver and vice versa. Are there any other ways to solve this issue?
VPS Info:
OS: Debian 12
Architecture: ARM64 / aarch64
RAM: 4 GB
Traffic: 20 TB
That would work, but I’ve noticed performance isn’t as good as a UDP VPN that uses the kernel’s tun module. OpenVPN is also an option, but it’s a LOT more involved to configure (I used to run it before Wireguard existed).
The oddest part is you can’t get a netcat message through. That implies firewall somewhere.
What is the output of your
ufw status?I’ve added some different ports for the future, but this is my
ufw status:Status: active To Action From -- ------ ---- OpenSSH ALLOW Anywhere 51820 ALLOW Anywhere 2333 ALLOW Anywhere 80 ALLOW Anywhere 81 ALLOW Anywhere 443 ALLOW Anywhere 80/tcp ALLOW Anywhere OpenSSH (v6) ALLOW Anywhere (v6) 51820 (v6) ALLOW Anywhere (v6) 2333 (v6) ALLOW Anywhere (v6) 80 (v6) ALLOW Anywhere (v6) 81 (v6) ALLOW Anywhere (v6) 443 (v6) ALLOW Anywhere (v6) 80/tcp (v6) ALLOW Anywhere (v6)
