Wireguard VPN: Typical Setup
BRANK

I recently discovered the awesome Wireguard VPN tunnel and I was sold. Wireguard is a simple, kernel-based, state-of-the-art VPN that also happens to be ridiculously fast and uses modern cryptographic principles that all other highspeed VPN solutions lack.Openvpn used to be my VPN solution of choice but after a few weeks with Wireguard, things changed. See the performance comparision charts done by the Wireguard author, Jason Donenfeld.Here are just a few of the reasons why Wireguard blows away the competition:It aims to be as easy to configure and deploy as SSH.It is capable of roaming between IP addresses (especially useful to prevent dropped connections when you have flaky internet).Uses state-of-the-art cryptography.It is meant to be easily implemented in very few lines of code, and easily auditable for security vulnerabilities.A combination of extremely high speed cryptographic primitives and the fact that WireGuard lives inside the Linux kernel means that secure networking can b…
