I'm sure there are many ways to skin this cat.

Something like ZeroTier should work, and I have ZeroTier setup for FSX so if you want to try it then happy to help to get it working. I might actually try it out anyway, since I have a mobile hotspot that I use when travelling, and it comes in handy when my home broadband goes down.

I've just been looking at Yggdrasil and might give it a play too. I'm currently travelling in Malaysia, and my wireguard connection to home isnt working - but it works from my companies intranet - so I'm thinking somewhere is not allowing udp traffic (or is blocking wireguard explicitly. Yggdrasil uses TCP so and makes an overlay network, so it may be a another option for me.
