What's the throughput like on a Raspberry Pi?
I was only able to get ~60mbps with OpenVPN through a hard wired Raspberry Pi 3 connected to Google Fiber, due to limitations of its bus. The 4 is supposed to be actual gigabit, but I have not yet tried it out to confirm.

#43I have been using ZeroTier( https://www.zerotier.com/ ) much simpler solution to setup.
"A commercial license is only needed if you want to offer a paid network management service or embed it into a proprietary device or app."
I would stay away from software that wants to restrict how you use it.

#44Would a Pi4 be able to handle being both a VPN and a pihole, or should these be two separate boxes?

Doesn't sound like it's Open Source to me. "A commercial license is only needed if you want to offer a paid network management service or embed it into a proprietary device or app." I would stay away from software that wants to restrict how you use it.

A cursory look suggests that it's open source, with restrictions that they clearly list on their site here[0]. I get your point, but I personally don't mind if a business open sources their software and allows free use of it for non commercial cases.

That's not open source. They make the source available but open source does not restrict what you can do with it other than sometimes requiring that you share the source for your binaries.

#50I've been considering setting up WireGuard so I can keep my mobile phone always connected to my home network.
Will I experience degraded network performance (either latency or bandwidth) if I have my mobile phone always connected to a VPN 24/7?
My phone is an iPhone 11 Pro and I would be running WireGuard on a Pi4
