I’m a noob to self-hosting, I have set up some containers but only through watching tutorials on youtube, in reality I barely understand what I’m doing.
I have a wireguard docker container set up, but when I connect to it with my phone, there’s no internet.
Can somebody tell me what I’m doing wrong? I just want to access my server outside my home network.
Tailscale is an excellent answer here. They use wireguard as the vpn protocol, but add layers of extra control.
You can use it in sidecar config for each container, or setup a subnet router, which lets you route any IP over the VPN. Just target that IP with a /32 cidr, i.e tailscale up --advertise-routes:192.168.1.100/32.
