Is there any possibility to get wireguard working to access my raspberry pi from outside my home? I’ve port forwarded the wireguard udp port and it doesn’t work… Likely because I’m behind a NAT. My wan public ip is like 10.x.x.x which is most likely a private ip. Running tailscale for now

    I’d advise to use headscale on a vps somewhere. Its tailscale but selfhosted.

    I’m in the same boat so I setup a $2.50/mo VPS and that’s my gateway. It took a little bit to get the nftables on vps to work right. I’d recomemned tailscale or similar if you want easy, though I’ve not ever used them myself.

    You need to expose the ports you want to access on an external, publicly accessible server like a cheap vps. Then you can use wireguard to forward the traffic to your Pi.

    I haven’t done it in a long while, so I can’t explain it well enough, try searching for “vps wireguard gateway”. That should bring up some blog posts that will explain the process better. I used a VPS I got on the AWS free tier, you really don’t need anything expensive.
