Netrinos – A keep it simple Mesh VPN for small teams

I'm the founder at Netrinos. I built a WireGuard-based mesh VPN because remote access has always been a pain. After years of SSH tunnels, IPsec headaches, and the ssh log horror movie, I wanted something simpler: install, sign in, get work done. Netrinos creates a LAN-like overlay network across your devices. Connections are direct P2P via WireGuard, with no central server routing traffic. Each device gets a stable IP and DNS name (pc.you.netrinos.com). When direct connections fail, they fall back to a relay server that's still encrypted end-to-end. We can't see your traffic. The most…

In plain words

Netrinos is a mesh VPN built on WireGuard that creates a LAN-like overlay network for remote teams. It establishes direct peer-to-peer connections between devices, each assigned a stable IP and DNS name, with encrypted end-to-end relay fallback when direct connections aren't possible. The service requires no central server routing traffic and is designed for teams seeking simpler remote access without the complexity of traditional VPN solutions.

From the sources

A totally transparent, always-on, mesh-based, remote network that keeps you connected wherever you go. Your devices can see each other from anywhere on the Internet regardless of your location or type of connection.

Secure mesh VPN that connects your devices anywhere. WireGuard encryption, automatic roaming, works through firewalls. Free for personal use.

A private network that connects all your devices, wherever they are. Install, log in, connected. Every device on your Netrinos network gets a fixed IP address and a DNS name. They discover each other automatically and connect directly, peer-to-peer. It looks like a LAN, but your devices can be anywhere in the world. Not a privacy VPN for hiding your IP from websites. A private network where your devices connect to each other. Traffic flows between your devices, not through a central server. Fastest possible path. Every connection uses WireGuard ® . Your data stays private. Passes through NAT and firewalls automatically. No port forwarding. No firewall rules. A small team, spread across…from netrinos.com

  • WireHub – easily create and share WireGuard networks2023 · wirehub.org · ▲312

    WireHub is a side project I've been working on, on and off, for close to a year now. It's made with django and minimal javascript. It's a hosted WireGuard config generator/manager, that you can invite others to join your networks and manage their own configs/devices. It's still very much a beta, maybe an mvp, but I just wanted to get some early from the community. Thanks!

  • Weron – A Peer-to-Peer VPN Based on WebRTC Written in Go2022 · github.com · ▲204

    Hey HN! I just released weron, a P2P VPN that uses WebRTC for transport which I've been working on for the last couple of months. It can create both layer 2/Ethernet and layer 3/IP overlay networks, and the underlying transport layer can be easily embedded to write your own P2P apps with Go. Compared to for example Tailscale, WireGuard and ZeroTier, its much harder to block on a network level and also significantly easier to set up, while not sacrifing much performance. I'd love to get your feedback :)

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
