I’m going on a trip tomorrow and want to be able to access jellyfin remotely but port forwarding JF isn’t an option. I already have Wireguard set up on my pfsense router and my phone can VPN in just fine. I used to have a tablet so I reused its config for my steam deck. I SSH’d the config file over, imported in Network Manager. But when I activate the Wireguard VPN nearly the entire UI stops responding. The power button works and I can bring up the on-screen keyboard but that’s it. My only option is to hold down the power button to force the deck to shut down.

Anyone have any ideas what’s going on?

    I can use my phone’s wifi to be a client and an AP at the same time? I did not know that. That would work though.

      Depends on the type of phone, usually it’s just finding out. You can also share it over Bluetooth within desktop mode, unsure about game mode.

        I have a Pixel 6A. Going into the settings it looks like I can share wifi while being connected to an AP at the same time. I’ll do that.
