Overview
Internet Access VPN Server based on WireGuard® technology with Control Web Panel. This server is intended to provide the secure internet access for computers and mobile devices. Additionally, it contains a Pi-Hole® proxy DNS server that blocks advertising DNS requests (the ad block database contains more than 140,000 DNS addresses). Thus, this VPN server allows clients to surf the web and significantly reduce the amount of advertising displayed. It is easy to use: after launching, the server is immediately fully operational without the need for any setup. WireGuard® technology is quite modern; it offers data transfer speeds through WireGuard® tunnels that are higher than those using IKEv2 and significantly higher than the OpenVPN® protocol. This WireGuard® server provides a stable VPN connection at the highest possible speed. Its high efficiency allows for use even on low-performance machines, potentially reducing costs. Users can opt for simple instance types like t3.micro, t3.small, t3.medium, etc. Data encryption is carried out using modern protocols, and user authentication is managed with security keys. The server has a convenient and intuitive web control panel, which allows for the adjustment of basic VPN channel settings and user management. Before establishing a VPN connection, please ensure that the WireGuard® client software is installed on client devices. Such WireGuard® client software is available for Windows, Linux, Android, macOS, and iOS.

Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.

Additional details
Usage instructions
- Launch the server. This server does not require the powerful computing resources - you can choose a simple instance type. Linux username: admin
- Attach the elastic ip to the instance (recommended).
After launching the server, it is immediately ready for use, with no additional settings required. It is important that the client device has the WireGuard client application installed, which is available for Windows, Linux, Android, macOS, and iOS.
The server has 2 separate control panels: a control panel for the WireGuard VPN server and a control panel for the PiHole proxy-DNS server. Control panels can be accessed from the page:
- http://[Public IP address]
- https://[Public IP address] (recommended)
- Please use "admin" as username and your instance ID as password to access the WireGuard control panel and use your instance ID as password to access the PiHole control panel.
When accessing the web control panels using HTTPS, your web browser may display a message about potential risks due to the use of an IP address in the URL. In this case, you should proceed and accept the risks, as our main objective is to encrypt traffic, and using an IP address in a web browser is safe for our purposes.
By default, a user named 'User 1' is already set up in the WireGuard Control Panel with a randomly generated user key. You can immediately download the configuration file for the Windows WireGuard client or use the QR code to add this user to the WireGuard client application on your mobile device.
After the server has been started, try connecting to it using a WireGuard VPN client. Ensure that when the client connects to the Internet via this VPN server, the client's IP address is different from the original. Visit some website that contains a lot of advertisements and then open the PiHole control panel make sure that some advertising DNS addresses have been blocked by the PiHole proxy-DNS server.
The server and user keys were created automatically when the server was first started and are unique.
