Hi peeps, a little lost in the self-hosting world right now, and hoping someone can point me in the right direction.
I’ve just set up all the *arr apps that i want and need for media, music and books. And am at the step where i am supposed to bind a VPN to my qBittorrent. However, I am ofc running everything behind the beloved Tailscale. But just realised I am not allowed to run tailscale at the same time as another VPN(ProtonVPN in my case).
How do i get past this cross-road? I really want to stick with using Tailscale for accessing my services.
Is a reverse proxy something i should look into instead? I need my server to sit behind a VPN…
Appreciate any tips or tricks for how other people solved this buckle.
Tailscale and Mullvad (VPN company) advertise their compatibility and there is an article that goes into further detail. Of course it’s also possible to setup Wireguard yourself and use a VPN service.
I have a Wireguard network setup for my devices that routes through my somewhat distant server. I find when I have both it and Tailscale open, Tailscale tries routing through Wireguard even though both devices might be on the same LAN. Unfortunately I don’t believe Tailscale has a way to forbid it from routing over other VPNs or networks.
I have a Tailscale subnet router set up locally and added the remote IPs to my router. Tailscale on every device was a crapshoot as to whether it would route locally or through the VPN.
I asked support and they said it should be on every device. Could be something else on my network forcing it to act like that but I don’t have enough give-a-shit in me to troubleshoot it.
As much as this would be super neat, I just paid for the Proton subscription… having me reconsider though :P
