Hello fellow tech heads,

 

I am curious as to the easiest route to setup a VPN connection to my home network.

 

I have tried VPN server but no bueno.

 

Any help is appreciated

Buy a Raspberry Pi, setup OpenVPN by following Youtube instructions or one Github which is called PiVPN

And, if you are not able to connect, use TCP connection instead, but UDP is better overall.
