If you're familiar with Tailscale, a software-based VPN that allows seamless access to your home network from anywhere, KeepMyHomeIP offers a similar solution but with hardware. Instead of configuring software, you simply plug the KeepMyHomeIP device into any available network, like in your Airbnb, hotel, or a public network, and it instantly connects to your home network. This creates a secure "mesh" between your travel location and your home, making it feel like you're browsing from your own home ISP. All your internet traffic is routed through your home connection, and you’re assigned your home IP address—even when you’re halfway around the world.

In this post, we’ll compare our product with Tailscale across five key points, helping you decide which one is the right choice for your specific situation.  Similarities Between KeepMyHomeIP and Tailscale Before diving into the key differences, it’s important to note that both solutions share some powerful similarities. Whether you choose a hardware-based or software-based approach, both options provide: Speed and Performance : Both solutions are built on W...
