      I'd like to remove wireless encryption and use tap OpenVPN always-on tunnels to connect (and encrypt traffic) to the real/private network. I've tried it with IKEv2 and tun OpenVPN but both of them being routed don't work with devices that use multicast to communicate and/or discover each other--or if they do I don't know how to set it up. :(

      I had read over and over that OpenVPN wasn't there yet but now ZeroTier not only does layer 2, it does it on tightly-controlled iOS, maybe there's hope for OpenVPN. :)

      Thanks !

      Missing something? Word endings, maybe? I included a free puzzle in this msg if you solv--okay, I'm lying. It's dyslexia, makes me do that, sorry! Just finish the word; they're rarely misspelled, just incomplete. Yeah-yeah-I know. Same thing.

        That's up to the OpenVPN developers on iOS/Android, not the pfSense side of things.
