Oracle Cloud's Lifetime free services (2 VPS + more)

Yeah, that's why I am confirming if that speed is enough for you guys for wireguard?

 

[Xyphoros]

Speed is not enough but that's ok for a free Indian VPS where the cheapest one costs you at least 5$ per month.

 

[varkey]

Yeah exactly, can't complain when its free! For most basic use cases it would work okay I guess.

I am not able to make pihole work because of this NAT thing. Anybody managed to combine wireguard and pihole in this VPS?

@lucifer Try setting up Adguard Home instead AdGuard Home | Network-wide software for any OS: Windows, macOS, Linux

I'll suggest adguard home over pihole... But what issues are you facing in setting up pihole?

 

[Xyphoros]

@ishanjain28 Because of the NAT IP, I don't know how to configure the IP in pihole.

 

[ishanjain28]

@lucifer Try out Adguard Home.. I thought I could help you with your issues but now I don't feel like I want to dive into pihole docs or try setting it up..

@waterloo_sunset Start using a password manager. Install and use bitwarden(See bitwarden_rs project).
You can also try setting up FreshRSS or Nextcloud.
