Personally I have the luxury of running the VPN server at home, so I can just always leave it on.




Why does this allow you to allows leave it on?


Presumably minimal latency from phone on home wifi to server on home wifi. I actually have no idea if this is true, or how I'd evaluate it. Does anyone understand how the internet and wireguard works well enough to know if this is true?


That's what I was wondering. I've actually done this using OpenVPN (connected to my home VPN server while on home wifi), and it worked fine. Biggest issue was battery impact, but wireguard might be better in that regard?


Well since I connect to my home network anyway I can just leave it on at home and there's no difference in performance.
