Not piracy, but I figured this is the best community to find people knowledgeable about this. I want to set up an open VPN server at my home and then go on a trip to another country for a week. If I connect my phone to my home VPN and connect my work laptop to my phone’s internet through a hotspot, will my work laptop only be able to see my home’s IP? Also my work laptop would need to connect to a work VPN.

Tldr; two devices, phone and work laptop. Phone connects to home VPN and laptop connects to work VPN. Laptop connects to internet through phone’s hotspot. Would laptop only be able to see home ip and work VPN ip? Or would it be able to know the actual ip?

Thanks.

    I’ve carried around these GLINet devices for years. Their lifesavers. Especially if you’re traveling with other people. Everybody can figures their device to use the GLI net Wi-Fi, which tunnels traffic, and then set it up in a hotel room, or an Airbnb, and your networking just works. You don’t have to configure each device.

    Nowadays however, with caylex I’m able to do 99% of what I want to for a travel router, with just my backup cell phone. So I’ve stopped carrying the GLINet devices, instead I just bring a USBC Ethernet adapter to check on my backup phone. I still love GLINet, I just want to minimize how much I have to carry.
