May 25May 25 First off -- I'm not a newb, but I am only a dabbler. If you point me in the right direction, I can generally figure it out (often with lots of wasted time).I'm running pfSense as a VM on Unraid (latest stable versions). I know, "don't vitualize your infrastucture!", but that's what I want for my home-lab. One box to grab from a fire/tornado/hurricane, or temporarily relocate during a power/internet outage.I'm using OpenVPN on my "Deluge with VPN" docker to get to my NordVPN account for all my -arr stuff.I'm using OpenVPN on pfSense which works great for remote access to everything Unraid.I'm getting that "It ain't broke, but I wanna fix it anyway" sense that Wireguard (with remotes managed by Tailscale?) would be more efficient throughout?My main question is -- where would I want to put Wireguard/Tailscale, pfSense or Unraid? Both?I hear NordVPN supports Wireguard through "NordLynx", but does it? On both pfSense and Unraid? I really only need the VPN for my -arr stuff (which is low-priority) and could leave it on the Deluge-OpenVPN-NordVPN connection (which doesn't support Wireguard) except I think maybe there's a significant overhead penalty?I think what I want is pfSense to manage two wireguard tunnels, one through NordLynx (for VPN/arr stuff), and one using Tailscale for remote access to Unraid dockers/VMs? But maybe it would be better for Unraid to manage the arr stuff and pfSense to manage the remote acess?OpenVPN for everything has been fairly easy and just works... do I even want to invest the time in learning wireguard (Tailscale)?Thanks for reading all this, and do you have any suggestions? Maybe a thread already here I missed?¡Gracias!
