    is microsoft still supporting ppp0 devices ? :)

    my point is tunnel is not that bad, or its just more complicated to
    still use, more and more uses non tunnel setups, to make it more
    simple, what is not desired is that all bots try
    port 21 22 23 25 80 109 110 143 443 465 587 993 995, with all
    kinds of random username and passwords, thay sometimes
    succed, sadly world to live in

    Hear, hear!

    Still no luck with any federal providers here in Tomsk. Rumour has it some of them can offer you some kind of tunnel (maybe its available for business customers), but noone is offering anything as simple as native IPv6 on my router's Ethernet interface.

    Against this background, the "MTS" mobile operator is advanced. I have a native IPv6 address from them on my Android phone (alongside with a RFC1918 IPv4 address).

    I am not familiar with Wireguard.

    One of the best available VPN software. I have a wireguard server
    running at home for remote access.

    See https://www.wireguard.com/

    It has a major drawback as compared to GRE or IPIP. You cannot bind your side of the tunnel to a specific IP address (external address as related to the tunnel).

    Whether you need to set up multiple tunnels with different links (I guess this is the case), you may use VRF to keep them apart.

    Linux does that just fine.

    Yes, I implied a case with two upstream ISPs when you want two tunnels to pass via different ISPs.

    I'm sure there exist some clever solutions, but with GRE or IPIP you could just use simple policy routing because the external src address is fixed.

    Do you suggest placing the two upstream ISPs into different VRFs?
