If you ever deployed an ESPHome node outside of your local network and still wanted it to talk to your smart home, you may have struggled with setting up Wireguard, dynamic DNS, etc. The goal with my Micro VPN is to simplify this process and make it as easy as possible to connect remote ESPHome nodes back home to your Home Assistant.
The alpha/early access will be closed so I can carefully manage how many users and devices I let on the platform.
Each user and connected device will be using bandwidth and compute resources which I will have to be paying for. Providing unlimited access at that point is simply economically not possible.
Once the platform reaches a sufficient stability and maturity I will be opening it up in an open beta, but note that I won’t be able to offer this as a free service. Unless we can find a sponsor that will provide compute and bandwidth.
