Hello, i've installed eblocker on my raspberry pi 4 yesterday. I like the software very much, but im question myself right now... Is it possible to create eblocker mobile connections for my friends without them to once join my local network? If yes, how do i do it and can i create custom ones for everyone, like family and friends?

Client OS
Browser
eBlocker hardware
Client OS version
Browser version
eBlockerOS version

@foxy 

it is not possible to create a new device. But I have the same requirement.

You can take an object from an "old" device to configure Mobile-Access, that is working for me.

Devices are created when they where found in the internal network 😀

@foxy For security reasons only local network devices can download the .ovpn config files for eBlocker Mobile.

But there is a simple work-around @pio78 mentioned: Just download the .opvn config for a device in your network you are usually not using for eBlocker Mobile - say a printer, a raid etc. Then just pass the .ovpn file (corresponding to the OS of your friends) to your friends. 

But beware: who ever has access to the .ovpn file, gets access to your network. So better chose encryption for transport of the file and your friends wisely 😉

THX!
