What you need

  • A 44Net Portal account
  • A verified amateur radio callsign
  • A machine running PFsense
  • Some sort of Internet access

If you haven't set up your Portal account or verified your callsign yet, see 44Net: Get Started for instructions. If you haven't obtained a WireGuard tunnel configuration file from 44Net Connect, get one using the the 44Net Connect quick start guide

Unlike other Quick Start guides, we aren't starting with a configuration file from 44Net Connect. Instead, we will be creating one during the course of this tutorial.

Install the WireGuard Package

WireGuard is not installed by default on PFsense, so we need to install it. Go to System > Package Manager > Available Packages and install WireGuard.

Generate a keypair in PFsense

Create a tunnel in 44Net Connect

Copy tunnel details into PFsense
