About this tag
This tag collects WindowsForum.com discussion of peer to peer VPN concepts, with a focus on how decentralized networking differs from conventional virtual private networks. The tagged content examines Reticulum, a peer-to-peer VPN approach that runs P2P IP networks over LoRa radio, off-grid mesh links, and other non-standard transports rather than relying on ordinary TCP/IP infrastructure. It also draws comparisons with mesh overlay services such as Tailscale and ZeroTier, which still depend on standard IP networking and centralized coordination. Readers interested in networking experiments, off-grid connectivity, and alternatives to mainstream VPN designs will find relevant context here.

    Reticulum VPN Explained: Run P2P IP Networks Over LoRa, Radio and Off-Grid Mesh Links

    When we talk about virtual private networks, we almost always take the underlying Internet Protocol for granted. Even modern mesh overlay services like Tailscale and ZeroTier—which have revolutionized how system administrators and home lab enthusiasts link remote machines—still depend on...
