Back to home Desktop

Mon Apr 22, 2024 8:40 am

Hi all,
as far I understand the BTH apps for Android/iOs are a convenient way to create a tunnel to the "Home" router with a dynamic IP; using a kind of DDNS by MikroTIk(*) behind the scenes.
1) Is there a similar application for mac/linux/windows PCs?
2) I assume 1) is no so is it possible to create the tunnel with using * manually without subscribing a 3rd party DDNS?

Thx and have a nice day!

For your first setup, use the phone. Then with the phone, use the "share" option in the BTH app and send the invitation to your Desktop PC (whatsapp, airdrop, email etc). In the Desktop PC you will need WireGuard application. you can import the shared Config file there
