I was trying to bypass using any clouds or apps for home security cameras and with your help I was able to get the first step with my own VPN. Thank you! Also, in case anyone runs into the same thing, my client phone and laptop couldn't access internet after a successful VPN connection. I had to run vpn -d on the rpi since the masquerade rule wasn't set. Now it looks great. Thanks again!
I have been thinking about getting a VPN client for certain things at the home, can I install PiVPN on my current PI server not worry about those other VPN clients and pay vis using the WireGuard and have my own VPN server?
man i've followed a few of your videos for setting up pi vpn and pi hole and i was doing good until I got to setting up wire guard on portainer, and the dns step on the vpn installer on pi. idk if you see this and would't mind helping a novice out i'd greatly appreciate it.
Hi, just want to understand, if you're running pi hole, would you be passing your pi's local IP in router DNS too with this setup? I have port forwarded 51820 to the local pi address. I have setup pivpn to use a domain that resolves to my pi's public IP, but the wireguard tunnel seems to not load for me.
if your using pihole you need to set the pihole ip as your dns server. it uses a differnt device port so it will it use dns from that device unless told to
ya you need to port forward whatever port you choose for the vpn. do not open 53 up for dns tho. you can use the same client for multiple devices but they can’t all connect at the same time then
Hey Carmine - any chance you might take a look at Tailscale and show how to setup using a server at home (Linux/Proxmox/etc) and how to access different services/containers? Was thinking about this might be a solution to access Crafty?
tailscale is deff a good option to access a local machine i can sure look into hosting it in a container. you may always want to check out cloudflare tunnel. you can forward your dashboards to a domain with it and use different subdomains to split which one is which. i’ll look more into tailscale server and see if i can get a video for it for ya
@@BarmineTech I’ve struggled with Cloudflare. I can get open tunnel established with difficulty but then it’s wide open. I can’t get the secure side to work. I have ddns going with Cloudflare due to non static ip. Not sure if it is a Starlink thing a Omada thing or my newbie sldumbness
Yo is there anyway I could just pay you to finish setting this stuff up for me. I got to portainer, and I am stuck at trying to get my wireguard stack to launch. I can connect to wireguard vpn but i dont get internet. thanks.
@@BarmineTech Great. I will try it. Currently I have it running on a Pi4B with 1GB which is overkill especially since I have a ton of 3B+ laying around. 3 Questions: Why pick the 32bit version of Pi Lite and not the 64bit? Is the version Bullseye or Bookworm? Can I use Dietpi and if so what version of that? Thanks in advance.
Sorry if this is a stupid question but if you have the desktop raspberry pi OS installed does pivpn remove the gui? Installed pivpn the other day on my pi and on reboot it just opened the terminal only full screen with no gui at all. Kind of confused
at the time i may have not had it working but do now and works great!

two things: isn't it just obvious that a power supply will be needed ? and what was the challenge not to have anything added in the comments to allow copy and paste any commands ? info was somehow useful thou, but lets try and see if this works, did not want to see this video to the end .. I will try AWS + openVPN
i just like to be nice and clear when going over stuff for a video, some people might be new to raspberry pis and might not be familiar. also in the description i have links to write ups for the commands. next time i’ll add them to the description

One of the best and comprehensive videos on the subject without being 45+ minutes and not explaining very basic concepts.
Dude! I was trying to solve it for hours but then i fixed it with your video. You are amazing. Keep the good work up!!
Glad I could help!
This is the most comprehensive explanatory video on TH-cam on this subject, thank you bro.
Glad it was helpful!
I just discovered this channel today, and I subscribed. It's like you knew exactly what I was looking for! I appreciate your hard work Chief.
Welcome aboard!

Great as usual, thanks Carmine.
A subscribe and a like, because after so much time looking how to make it happen, I finally did it thanks to your video
delightful lesson and very informative! Thank you!
You're very welcome!
thx for the help. It is up and running.
Thank you so much for this tutorial. Best video on pihole / VPN. Subbed.
Glad it helped!

Nice video! Really helps out
Great video and quite detailed
Do I have to do port forwarding and assign client to each devices to be used?
Thanks
ya you need to port forward whatever port you choose for the vpn. do not open 53 up for dns tho. you can use the same client for multiple devices but they can’t all connect at the same time then

like walk me through it in a skype call or something
does it make a difference if we install pivpn first and then pihole?
not really, there’s just an option in the pihole installer to add pivpn
So wait! You can have pinhole and pivpn running on the same pi sbc?
sure can!

not a stupid question! but i’m not sure i don’t really use the raspberry pi os gui i always instal on the life version that’s terminal only.
@@BarmineTech thanks for the response! Pivpn suggest installing on lite but I couldn’t find anything about it messing with the GUI on the full OS.
You are a goat
Will a pi 3b+ work?
sure will, even will on a pi zero
no unbound?
not in this video
thanks
good video
Or you can get a PoE hat and ditch the power brick. I'm assuming your switch isn't a PoE switch?
