FAQ

Is this like Hamachi or Radmin VPN?

Conceptually, yes — it builds a virtual LAN over the internet so remote players appear local to each other. Unlike those tools, there's no hosted relay operated by the project: connections are direct peer-to-peer, and if you use the named "Virtual Network" feature, the signaling server that helps members find each other is hosted by whichever user created that network, on their own machine — not by the developer.

Is it safe to use right now?

It's pre-release, alpha-quality software that has not been independently security-audited. The full crypto/network data path is covered by an automated test harness, but real-world NAT traversal between two physical machines on different networks hasn't been verified yet. Don't rely on it to protect confidential or regulated information, and only connect to peers you trust — see SECURITY.md.

Does it collect any data about me?

No telemetry, no analytics, no crash reporting, no account system — see Legal & Privacy and the full PRIVACY_POLICY.md for exactly what's stored locally versus shared with a peer.

What platforms does it run on?

CI builds installers for Windows, Linux, and macOS on every tagged release. The real VPN tunnel only works on Windows today, though — the virtual-adapter code is currently #[cfg(windows)]-only, so the Linux and macOS builds are UI-only previews: the app runs, but there's no working tunnel underneath yet. See PLATFORM-SUPPORT.md for the exact breakdown.

Why does it need Administrator privileges?

Creating a virtual network adapter (Wintun) is a privileged operation on Windows. The app runs normally without elevation; only the "Expert" real adapter mode needs it, and the app will prompt for a one-click elevated relaunch when required.

Can I use this for a full site-to-site LAN, not just gaming?

Not currently, and not by design for now — see Architecture for why full site-to-site sharing is deliberately out of scope at this stage.

I found a security issue — where do I report it?

Not as a public issue. Use GitHub Security Advisories — see SECURITY.md for what a good report includes.

Where can I ask something not covered here?

GitHub Discussions.
