Setup VPN on pfSense + VPN on the Go?
-
Hello all!
I finally got my pfSense install up and running thanks to the wonderful support of this community!
I wanted to see if it was possible to setup VPN on the pfSense and also have VPN on the Go?
I currently have SurfShark as my VPN provider. I wanted to set it up on my pfSense, use either OpenVPN or Wireshark to serve the VPN service on my home network as well as on the go?
I was able to set this up on my Pi-hole to block ads on my iPhones and access Pi-hole remotely.
As always, any help would be greatly appreciated :)
Thank you!

You can run both VPN clients and servers at the same time, yes. You can route that traffic as you please.

Awesome! Pardon my ignorance but is there a guide on how to initiate a remote VPN connection from pfSense to a mobile device when out of the home network?

The connection would be the other way around, from a remote mobile device to pfSense.

I’ll give it a go, looks a little complex but I gotta learn one way or another!

Run the wizard to set it up, it's pretty easy. There are also video walk-throughs. Ours is here: https://youtu.be/jQHqPq7ftz4

Great, thank you!
I also made a mistake in my post. I actually mean Wireguard not Wireshark.
Hopefully the steps are similar.
