EasyTier is a decentralized mesh VPN written in Rust that connects devices into one virtual network with peer-to-peer links, NAT traversal, and WireGuard or AES-GCM encryption. It runs on Windows, macOS, Linux, FreeBSD, and Android with CLI, GUI, and web management options.

Use cases

• connect my devices into one virtual LAN across locations
• self-hosted Tailscale or ZeroTier alternative
• set up a mesh VPN without a central server
• play LAN games with friends over the internet
• access home network services remotely behind NAT
• share a subnet between remote sites

When to choose

• you want a decentralized, self-hosted mesh VPN with no central coordination server
• you need NAT traversal across restrictive networks including NAT4-NAT4
• you need broad platform and architecture support including ARM and MIPS
• you want WireGuard-compatible encryption with intelligent latency-based routing

When to avoid

• you need a managed VPN service with zero configuration and hosted coordination
• you require centralized access control and user management policies
• you only need a simple point-to-point tunnel rather than a full mesh
