      Hi,

      My pfsense router at home is connected to Private Internet Access as an OpenVPN client.

      My question is, is it possible to set up an OpenVPN server such that when I'm away from home (using my phone, or any other device), I can connect to my home network and browse as though I was accessing the internet from home?

      If anyone can point me in the right direction, that would be much appreciated.

      Thanks

        You need a static public IP or a DDNS service if your IP is dynamic to get a static host name.

        Set up the VPN server is self-explanatory when using the wizard. VPN > OpenVPN > Wizards
