natboxWireGuard VPS: your own private VPN
natbox offers a VPN plan at $2.75 for 3 months: a very small server with WireGuard already set up. Scan the QR code in the client area with the WireGuard app and you are connected. It is your own server, not a seat on a shared VPN service.

Limits of the WireGuard VPS
- Your traffic leaves through our shared IPv4 address, in Germany. Other customers use that address too, so it is not an IP of your own.
- This is a private VPN for your own devices and your household. Open VPN or proxy services for the public are not allowed (Acceptable Use Policy).
- The VPN plan starts at 3 months and is paid with crypto or account credit.
- Outgoing mail ports 25, 465 and 587 are blocked.
WireGuard VPS questions
Does WireGuard work on a NAT VPS?
Yes. WireGuard needs one UDP port, and every natbox server has its own forwarded ports, TCP and UDP. WireGuard works inside natbox containers.
How many devices can I connect?
You can add several of your own devices. The VPN plan has 128 MB RAM, which is meant for personal use, not for a crowd.
Can I use the VPN plan for anything else?
It is a very small general Linux server, but it is made for one job. If you may want to do more, choose Nano.
