Wireguard VPN

[will]

@murgero Wireguard has been audited many times now. It is even upstreamed into the kernel.

Replying to old comments is hard apparently.

@yusf 100% this!! I actually already use it daily heheh

@will My original response to this post was almost a year ago - so of course stuff has changed since........

@murgero hahaah noted! I'll remove my reply!

[murgero]

@will No worries mate cheers!

For interest I find this WG service decent. I have 1Gb fibre and it's able to achieve about 90% of that speed, whereas Open VPN (with pfSense on Vultr) I get about 20% of my bandwidth:

@Miggi I am a big fan, too and are upvoting.

Together it makes even more sense.

+1 - Been using WireGuard over OpenVPN for the past couple of months and prefer it!

[dylightful]

@girish Now that Adguard has been implemented. Any future plans for Wireguard?

[imc67]

@dylightful I really hope so, OpenVPN from iOS and MacOS is dramatic (maybe also on other platforms?) and WireGuard is really fast, stateless and always on.

[ruihildt]

Wireguard is also low on battery usage comparing to OpenVPN. (on Android at least)

[JLX89]

Yes, this would be incredible! +1

[dylightful]

Quite and polite bump

[dylightful]

@girish any update on Wireguard? has quite a few votes now

[girish]

@dylightful not really, we haven't started working on it. We just finished releasing 6.2.

WG would be great! Absolutely. Openvpn is dead sorry (im mean Performance). Maybe for DSL fine, but if you have "normal " modern Conection >100mbit... WG ist almost alone, who can deliver really nice speed with pretty easy user friendly Installation.

[dylightful]

@kallados The best option at the moment is Nyr's WG script. Obviously means you have to create a new VM if you want to keep your Cloudron 'clean'.

Nevertheless, i agree OpenVPN is old news. Hopefully soon

[kallados]

@dylightful I like this OpenVPN which is included on Cloudron. I use it 24/7. Pretty stable, easy to install, nice Frontend- great Stuff. Im really happy with. WG is for me just something like "next Step 10 gbit server and 250mbit cable at home and im not able to get >150mbit with OpenVpn. If i connect with WG... 220-230 is no problem at all.

[dylightful]

@kallados Oh absolutely! Cloudron's OpenVPN panel is great. However, have stopped using it since OpenVPN drains the hell out of my Android phone. Speed alongside with battery life WG is my daily driver!

[ruihildt]

@dylightful Yeah OpenVPN battery drain is unfortunately real.
