# How to Set Up a WireGuard VPN from Home to School

Need secure remote access for staff or students? SecureSchool makes it easy with built-in support for **WireGuard VPN**. Here’s how to set it up:

#### 1. Enable WireGuard on Your SecureSchool Appliance

- Go to **VPN Services > WireGuard Server**
- Check the box for **“Use WireGuard”**
- Enter an **IP pool** that won’t conflict with your school’s existing network.
  - We recommend using 192.168.230.0/24

#### 2. Add VPN Clients

Each device that connects needs its own client configuration.

- Open the **Clients** tab
- Add one entry per device.
  - Example: If Fred wants to connect with his desktop, laptop, and phone, you’ll need to create **three clients** (one for each).

#### 3. Install the WireGuard App

Download the WireGuard installer for your device from [https://www.wireguard.com/install/](https://www.wireguard.com/install/)

WireGuard supports just about everything:

- Windows
- macOS
- iPhone / iPad
- Android
- Linux
- Even EdgeOS (Unifi)!

#### 4. Connect and Go

Once installed, import the configuration file for each device. That’s it — you’re ready to connect securely to your school’s network from anywhere.
