Two routers - one exit point? (self.selfhosted)

Hi,

for various reasons i have two routers. (In fact, one is a FritzBox hosting various SmartHome stuff, another is a Speedport from Telekom Germany, that also does the Internet Connection) The WiFi on the FritzBox is also a lot better and right now i don't have any need to get anything better (all that matters has Rj45 anyway).

This however also is an issue, because i can't easily host something. I have however a Hetzern Server as well and i have tried some zerotier, but i have failed to set it up correctly. Is there an easier way or has anyone something like an How-To for this that works?

Thanks :)

The basic gist of it is, Telekom switches back to DSL only, if it detects VPN traffic. And that’s only 2 Mbit/s upload. However, with the 5G Hybrid and SSL Connections on Port 443 i do get the full 60-90 Mbit/s upload. I could just put the Telekom router in my “main” network and have it be the Gateway, but that doesn’t go well with some devices i have.

I don't really want to host stuff, i'm fine with having to make a connection (like WireGuard or a VPN), but if i do it directly, i only get DSL Speeds, because WireGuard is also "detected" now. Everything that's not Port 443 or Port 80 get's routed over DSL...

Ugh, internet providers are annoying. Why is stuff like that even legal.

For situations like this I've had success with Shadowsocks, which you can combine with Wireguard, and run over Port 443, here's a guide.

You could also try if it's sufficient to just run vanilla Wireguard over port 443.

Edit: One issue you might run into with Shadowsocks is that combining it with Wireguard is not possible on mobile AFAIK.
