Anywherelan
Peer-to-peer mesh VPN to connect your devices directly, no central servers
新版本 0.19.0
VPN gateway now works on Windows — both as a client and as an exit node. Your Android device can now route all its traffic through a Windows PC.
Linux exit nodes now survive network changes (Wi-Fi/Ethernet) without restarting awl. The gateway can also be enabled while offline and connects once a network appears.
Security: malformed tunnel packets can no longer crash or overload a peer.
Fixed DNS AAAA (IPv6) queries incorrectly returning IPv4 records.
UI: peer badges adapt to narrow screens.

Anywherelan (awl) is a mesh VPN that lets you connect to any of your devices at the IP level, wherever they are. It works similarly to tinc, direct WireGuard or Tailscale, but fully peer-to-peer — there are no central coordination servers to trust or set up. Your traffic goes directly between your devices.
You can also route traffic through a remote device — either per-app as a SOCKS5 proxy, or all of your device's traffic at once as a full-tunnel VPN gateway (exit node).
Some use cases
Features
How it works
Awl is built on top of libp2p for peer-to-peer networking and a TUN virtual interface for IP routing. QUIC or TCP with TLS is used as a transport, and a DHT is used to discover peers. On first launch, the app connects to community bootstrap nodes, registers itself, and then looks up the addresses of the peers you want to reach.

You can also route traffic through a remote device — either per-app as a SOCKS5 proxy, or all of your device's traffic at once as a full-tunnel VPN gateway (exit node).
Some use cases
- Connect to your home or work laptop over RDP/VNC/SSH even when it sits behind NAT, without configuring port forwarding.
- Reach self-hosted services like Nextcloud, Home Assistant or Bitwarden without exposing them to the internet.
- Access websites from another country by using a remote device as a SOCKS5 proxy.
- Route all of your traffic through a remote device as a full-tunnel VPN gateway (exit node), like a classic VPN.
- Gaming: local multiplayer as if everyone were on the same LAN.
- Share a development server with a colleague on another device, as an alternative to ngrok.
- Use an old Android phone remotely with scrcpy to run Android-only apps without an emulator.
Features
- Fully peer-to-peer. No third-party coordination servers — your traffic stays between your devices.
- Route traffic through a remote device like a SOCKS5 proxy.
- Full-tunnel VPN gateway: route all of your device's traffic through a remote exit node.
- Easy to use: install the app, scan the QR code of another device, and you are connected.
- Built-in NAT traversal.
- If both devices are behind NAT and direct P2P is not possible, encrypted traffic is relayed through community relays.
- TLS 1.3 encryption for all transports (QUIC and TCP).
- ed25519 peer authentication — a peer id is the device's public key.
- Cross-platform: Android, Windows, Linux, macOS.

新版本 0.18.0
New: VPN gateway (full-tunnel exit node).
Route all of your device's traffic through one of your remote devices at the IP layer, like a classic VPN — not just per-app like the SOCKS5 proxy. Pick an exit node and turn it on or off without restarting the app.
Note: the exit node must be a Linux device (Android can use a gateway, but not serve as one). Only IPv4 traffic is routed.
