Home IP from not home

Websites wonât be an issue as far as I know, but apps can check to see if your phone is connected to a VPN (they canât glean any actual info, but they can ask the phone âare you connected to a VPN? IF yes, I will not workâ type thing. But a website I donât think would know, theoretically the browser may be able to ask that, but I donât think that would get passed back go the website.Â

Another phone wonât work unless it explicitly supports Wifi routing which you would need to figure out how to even set up. Iâm not saying itâs not possible, I bet some android ROM has this built in, but you would need to set up routing on the ârouterâ phone so it routes traffic from the SSID it would be broadcasting.

TLDR; itâs likely not impossible, but your getting into the realm of beet niche use case and your goog to have to google/forum post your way to victory⌠Â

Best bet is get a raspberry pi and set it up as a VPN router, but this will also be a rather advanced setup and you will want to test it all at a friends house beforehand to make sure it just automatically works etc. Again, itâs entirely possible, I have done it, but it does take some learning, patience, and time  Â
