Networking question: is there a semi-easy way to use an existing VPN client tunnel on a router if you tunnel into said router via Wireguard? Something like this:

User > Wireguard > Router > Wireguard > VPN

I'd like to use the second connection through the first Wireguard connection, so that I can simply tunnel into my home network and then use its VPN connection when I access the Internet. #asknostr

invizbox router + protonvpn is pretty plug n play 🤙

Could have wireguard running on a pi zero or equivalent and get into your home network that way, then it's like your accessing the internet from that zero on your home network.

pfSense might not be the easiest but it is an alternative as well because it can run the wireguard server and connect the router to the hosted VPN.

I would port forward through your router to a VM or other low end machine running wireguard. Then from that machine running wireguard you can point the 0.0.0.0/0 route to your physical router which is hopefully running a wireguard tunnel to your provider.

Important: you will likely need a route from the VPN provder back into your network for your wireguard subnet on your "user" device.

Yes you do masquerade(nat) on the router so you can access the Internet from the other end of that tunnel then you just connect normally to your home router with a default route via the peer ip (router ip)
