I would like to have a way of contacting my HomeLab without incurring a port on the internet, which in my case I have no control over. The idea is to put a WireGuard-Hub (using a Raspberry Pi) into a friend's network, with a port open to the outside, subject to dynamic dns. The dynamic dns would always point to the WireGuard-Hub's location. The WireGuard-Hub would be on it's own private vlan or be the DMZ host in the friend's network. The WireGuard-Hub would be the clearing house for WireGuard connections privately outside of anyone's network and connections would come to the WireGuard-Hub either through laptops/cellphones/tablet WireGuard encrypted connections or through a Breakout-Box in someone's network. The Breakout-Box would push a WireGuard connection to the WireGuard-Hub through the dynamic dns location and at the same time would be the connection to whatever network it was connected to. The idea is to have a cheap and quick connection between many networks and devices that is peer to peer and doesn't require an elaborate setup.
This is a blog mostly about techie things, what I am doing to my apartment network on the cheap, IOT, 3D Printing, Raspberry Pis, Arduinos, ESP32, ESP8266, Home Automation, Personal Weather Stations, Things That Go Bump in the Night, and some side issues that need discussing. Remember, sometimes the journey to an end is as much fun as the goal achieved!
