Using Hamachi to VPN my pihole to my phone

Simple question, but maybe not so simple too. I want to set up some appliances at my house and bind them to devices like my phone for while I am out and about. Could I use hamachi to do this? Is there a better way to do this?

ZeroTier and Tailscale are the new Hamachi.

ZeroTier does L2 tunneling and Tailscale does L3.

I happen to prefer Tailscale.

Do they have API access?

Ah they use wireguard. Very good then.

Is that like saying if it wont bridge well on L3 with Tailscale, you can go deeper with a more brute-like approach with L2 and ZeroTier?

If push comes to showe I won’t use a pre-baxed wireguard solution and instead build my own. I just don’t have time for that.

I think if I understand it right, ZeroTier creates a virtual adapter that can pretty much tunnel through a lot of tricky things, for as long as the machine is actually connected to the internet.
