What it does

Weron creates private overlay networks over WebRTC, with IP or Ethernet modes, community access controls and a signaling server you can host.

Weron's concrete starting point is a community of machines behind NAT. Its command-line client can create an IP network or an Ethernet overlay, while WebRTC uses STUN and, when needed, TURN to establish a path. That can serve a homelab or a network spanning local and cloud hosts.

The signaling server introduces a separate operational choice. You can use the documented hosted service or run your own; persistent communities and a larger deployment need their database, broker and TLS configuration planned. The latest listed release is version 0.3.0 from April 2025. Weron supplies this connectivity software, so internet exit service and account credentials are not included.

Platform limits affect the choice of mode. Windows supports one IP network and one VPN instance at a time. On macOS, IP mode supports IPv6 only and Ethernet mode is unavailable.
