Hi, I’m trying to set up a secure way for Home Assistant (running on Site A) to access the local REST‑API of an everHome EcoTracker power meter located at Site B, over a VPN connection. The hardware setup is:
• Site A: UniFi Cloud Gateway Ultra + Home Assistant server
• Site B: FritzBox 7530 + EcoTracker power meter
The EcoTracker exposes a local HTTP API on its LAN (e.g., http://192.168.x.x:80 or similar), which is only reachable by default from devices inside the FritzBox’s subnet.
My goal is:
• Create a VPN tunnel (preferably WireGuard or IPsec) between Site A and Site B.
• Then let Home Assistant on Site A call the EcoTracker’s local API (e.g., http://ecotracker‑ip‑site‑b:port/api/… ) as if it were on the same LAN.
How can I achive this goal?
THANKS!
I guess it’s possible:
What’s holding you back?
