Interesting. Who’s servers do you connect with? Or am I missing something?

You buy a home WiFi router (e.g., the WRT32X) and then you flash OpenWRT on it (replacing the manufacturer's firmware). OpenWRT is a bare-bones implementation of Linux designed specifically for home routers.

You then download and install the WireGuard Linux modules into OpenWRT on the router.

There are many variations on VPN protocols, each with its own tradeoffs. WireGuard is the most recent and the best (IMHO) due to its simplicity, configurability, ease of use, and compatibility (it can work pretty much anywhere).
