Yeah but Vince is a dinosaur. I've heard he's still running OpenVPN. Eeeww.

Such a shame wireguard specifically won't let you hide your VPN connection on port 443 with a passthrough like OpenVPN does. Useful in some environments that like to particularly lock things down on anything that isn't a standard web port.

There have been reports of OpenVPN traffic being discovered as VPN traffic even after using obfuscation with obfs-proxy. I believe SSL VPNs are coming out for the self-hoster, and I'm personally very interested in SoftEther

Now do it without allowing a third-party control ingress access to your home LAN.

All fun and games until you're on a restricted network where even OpenVPN is blocked

This is my life. Customer's site does DPI and terminates any VPN traffic on any port or protocol before connection is even established. Their VPN works, anything else gets dropped.

Have you tried running it in TCP mode on port 443?
