Do you have a second factor for your VPN? Or is it literally just a passphrase and you're in? I also need a shared key to access mine, which puts new back at square one (I will not compromise on this)

I do really need what I've described because it's literally a situation I've been in.

passphrase yes. It’s a long sentence than only me know.

As i use this vpn only when travelling and the passphrase doesn’t change, i can use my phone or tablet cached data to get the passphrase if i forget it.

And once connected to my home network via my vpn, i have access to all my services (vaultwarden, jellyfin, storage, etc...). All require of course login as i’m not accessing them from my local network.
