  • Gluetun or server vpn?

    From Shurato@1337:3/185 to All on Saturday, January 24, 2026 01:15:00
    Should I run Gluetun, or my wireguard vpn on the server? Inbound traffic is using my ip dyndns for the most part, outbound traffic and torrents use the vpn. Right now I'm running wireguard (with protonvpn) on the server and I think that's good enough. It doesn't have a kill switch though, which I'm a little concerned about. What is the general opinion on this setup?

    It depends on what you intend to do with your VPN.

    If you intend to link many office networks together through the Internet then I think handling the VPN is best left to your router, if it can handle it.

    It can, but some of my clients require split tunnel
