Connection from Work to Home PC

I know what most will say, I'm not supposed to be connecting to my home servers from my work computer. I get it.

I currently use Dex on my Samsung phone to have remote access to my home systems which I connect to my work laptop but run into some bugs here and there.

Is there a more efficient way to have encrypted remote connections to my home system? I was considering seeing if I can route VPN traffic through a split tunnel to my home network through a specific interface on my windows laptop that connects to a Hotspot while maintaining LAN connection to my work environment.

morningbird88,

Set up WireGuard in a docker at home, port forward to that then add the config to your devices.

You can now connect to your home network.

themachine,

Why use a different interface and a hotspot? Just route only the needed traffic over a VPN on the main interfaces.

Bldck,

Tailscale?

Tailscale is my goto. I can just use regular remote desktop like I'm on my home LAN. Having said that - I run this on my own laptop that I bring with me. I'd never set it up on a work computer.
