You self-host Nextcloud, Plex, Home Assistant, or a dozen other services. You shouldn't have to spend an afternoon configuring WireGuard every time you need a VPN. TunnelFleet deploys a VPN server on your DigitalOcean account in about 2 minutes.
SSH into the server, manually configure WireGuard
Every new server means another SSH session and another round of wg genkey, editing config files, and setting up iptables.
One wrong iptables rule and you lock yourself out
Firewall misconfiguration is the most common cause of VPN setup failures. It's easy to get wrong.
Managing multiple servers becomes a spreadsheet
Once you have more than one VPN server (home → cloud, office → cloud, etc.), tracking IPs, keys, and configs becomes tedious.
Reprovisioning after a rebuild takes another hour
When you need to replace a server, you repeat the entire manual process.
Connect your DigitalOcean account, pick a region, and click deploy. TunnelFleet handles the Droplet creation, WireGuard installation, key generation, and firewall setup via cloud-init — the same way a professional would set it up, but without the manual work.
Your server, your infrastructure. The Droplet is in your DigitalOcean account. You can still SSH in if you want to. TunnelFleet is just the part that sets it up and keeps it visible.
You own the infrastructure. TunnelFleet connects to your account via API. The Droplet is yours.
WireGuard private keys are generated on the VM during provisioning. TunnelFleet never handles your private key.
A $6/month DigitalOcean Droplet is all the infrastructure you need. TunnelFleet has a free tier for individual use.
If you cancel TunnelFleet, your Droplet continues running. WireGuard keeps working. You're not locked in.
No. TunnelFleet handles all the WireGuard configuration, iptables/ufw setup, and sysctl settings automatically. You don't need to understand any of it to deploy a working VPN server.
TunnelFleet has a free tier suitable for individuals managing a single VPN server. Check the pricing page for current plan details. DigitalOcean charges separately for the Droplet ($6–$12/month typically).
TunnelFleet provisions VPN servers on cloud infrastructure (DigitalOcean). If you want to connect your home network to a TunnelFleet-managed VPN server, you'd configure WireGuard peers on your home router or devices, pointing to the TunnelFleet-provisioned server.
The DigitalOcean Droplet continues running and is billed to your DigitalOcean account. WireGuard continues working. You just lose the TunnelFleet management interface. You can manage the server directly via SSH.
Free tier available. Bring your DigitalOcean account. No SSH required.
