Hi,
If you need more information about Meshnet you can find https://meshnet.nordvpn.com.
Thank you for trying Meshnet.
@mariusSincovici Thanks for the information! Is there a way to check the connection status (direct or relay) I'm testing it now and unfortunately it doesn't work on the company network (strong firewall rules) is it possible to "help" the connection with another device (e.g. my home server) like port forward or something?
Hi,
For the moment the CLI is not displaying this information, it is available into the application logs.
But an easier way to get it would be with WireGuard tools: sudo wg show
and nordvpn mesh peer list
.
WG tools will display the status of all the WG connections. There each peer has its public key and the endpoint
. If the endpoint is not 127.0.0.1, then it is a direct connection. To know which peer is which from your Meshnet you can use nordvpn mesh peer list
. This will give peer information + public key(same with WG tools).
e.g.
$ sudo wg show
peer: <key1>
endpoint: 127.0.0.1:1234
peer: <key2>
endpoint: <public_ip>
$ nordvpn mesh peer list
Nickname: peer1
Public Key: <key1>
Nickname: peer2
Public Key: <key2>
In the above peer2
has direct connection, while peer1
doesn't.
Regarding the "help" to improve direct connections. This depends on the company network settings. For example if the firewall is blocking then would require firewall rules changes.

My current config is that my home i isntall nordvpn on my server. Of course i manage my server fully. My firewall is OPNSense. so it possible to set something on my home side, to able to access it to company network ? (in these side i use my mobile device)
For example, I need to enable NAT-PMP to make direct connection on Tailscale. Simiral "tune" option are exist with meshnet?
Hi,
We need to look into this in greater detail with the team working on the NordLynx protocol to determine if we can implement a similar approach for direct connections, or if it requires changes on their end for OPNSense.
We'll keep you informed as soon as we have more information on this.
I found now Meshnet option and i test it.
Before i use tailscale and i have some question with meshnet.
