I’m on iOS and do the same thing.
The WireGuard app has a setting to “connect on demand”. It’s in the individual connections/configurations.
You can then set either included or excluded SSIDs. There’s also an option to always connect when you’re on mobile/cellular data.
I imagine the Android app is similar.
Neat, I’ll have to look it up. Thanks for sharing!
Nextcloud isn’t exposed, only a WireGuard connection allows for remote access to Nextcloud on my network.
The whole family has WireGuard on their laptops and phones.
They love it, because using WireGuard also means they get a by-default ad-free/tracker-free browsing experience.
Yes, this means I can’t share files securely with outsiders. It’s not a huge problem.
Update: I went and had a look and there’s a Terraform provider for OPNSense under active development - it covers firewall rules, some unbound configuration options and Wireguard, which is definitely more than enough to get started.
I also found a guide on how to replicate pfBlocker’s functionality on OPNSense that isn’t terribly complicated.
So much of my original comment below is less-than-accurate.
OPNSense is for some, like me, not a viable alternative. pfBlockerNG in particular is the killer feature for me that has no equivalent on OPNSense. If it did I’d switch in a heartbeat.
If I have to go without pfBlockerNG, then I’d likely turn to something that had more “configuration as code” options like VyOS.
Still, it’s nice to know that a fork of a fork of m0n0wall can keep the lights on, and do right by users.
If you backup your config now, you’d be able to apply the config to CE 2.7.x.
While this would limit you to an x86 type device, you wouldn’t be out of options.
I am an owner of an SG-3100 as well (we don’t use it anymore), but that device was what soured me on Netgate after using pfSense on a DIY router at our office for years…
I continued to use pfSense because of the sunk costs involved (time, experience, knowledge). This is likely the turning point.
