That works when I’m in my room/cabin/place. I’m actually building a Raspberry Pi-based travel box right now (so next time I have linux tools to diagnose problems), and it can do tcp wrapping/forwarding. But carrying a battery-powered router-sized thing around on vacation somewhat defeats the point of carrying an iPhone on travel. Another box to break, another battery to run out. And my wife wants vpn access too, even if she’s away from me.

Cheers

I can set up whatever is needed on the server endpoint (it’s Debian), but what can I do on my phone to make wg work through an HTTP(s)-shaped pinhole? I’d hate to have to ditch wg for some other vpn just for that rare case… but what’s the answer?
