  • Not true. I’ve been involved in litigation with both AWS and Google over unsecured comms that were defined as being TLS secured in SLA/SLO contracts and found not to be. Not that anything nefarious was happening necessarily, but the expectation is clear.

    Whether these asshats even check for such requirements with a Musk run company right now 🤷

    It COULD possibly be that they are logging every exchange happening at the network fabric between the service layers, but nobody knows unless they intentionally take steps to investigate or accidentally prove it.

    Pretty much got it. Any other static routes you setup will be static to the new router only, but otherwise that’s pretty much it. Devices with static IPs don’t participate in DHCP, so it won’t cause a conflict. Just make sure DHCP is disabled on the new device.

    The default gateway for the new device needs to be your existing router in order to get to the internet. Then when you create a new WG connection, you ensure all traffic that gets passed to this new device forwards through the Wire guard tunnel.

    PC > WG-router > existing-router > internet

    You need a router or a proxy. A proxy would be annoying, so a router is preferred.

    If you don’t have control of your edge router, just get a cheap Pi-type device, install OpenWRT, setup your VPN connections, then create a route on your network to point at this new device for whatever you need it for.

    If you simply want to use it at-will for certain things, you can put a proxy on it.

    As to your other issues, it sounds like your WG connection is just dropping, in which case it won’t automatically reconnect by default. OpenWRT has plugins that can monitor that and reconnect when it drops, or you can script it pretty quickly as well.
