Hey everyone, I was wondering about possible solutions to reach my home network when travelling. At the moment, I have a Wireguard VPN to my home router running OpenWRT. However, this is increasingly useless as Wireguard connections (even on port 80 and 443) are being blocked by hotels etc. (presumable DPI?). I have read about Shadowsock being a possible solution but struggled setting it up on my OpenWRT router.

Are there any other options? Preferably those that can run on an OpenWRT router, or on a server at home.

Any help is much appreciated.

    I recently had massive issues reaching my home network from hotel WiFi. I couldn’t even connect my regular VPN on their WiFi, I tried a bunch of stuff with different ports, TCP/UDP, different protocols, nothing seemed to work even for my proton VPN.

    I managed to get mullvad running though, then I could connect with tailscale (with mullvad VPN still running) and then disable mullvad after tailscale connected. Tailscale then didn’t drop the connection.

    Weird work around, but it was consistent.
