So I’ve never setup a vpn before, I’ve been trying to decide how to make this simple for windows clients and phones. Must I have a vpn client? I’m using IPSec, ssl, and LDAP on the public end. I don’t want a client app. A gateway/router should suffice I hope.

WireGuard is growing in popularity but I’m not aware of any router firmwares which have a WireGuard client built-in (maybe the popular open source firmwares). Many routers have OpenVPN clients built in.

MikroTik have recent added support https://forum.mikrotik.com/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=165248

i really like my GL inet router, which has the ability to be a VPN client or server built in to the router GUI. wireguard, openvpn, and tor (!) are options at the router level.

their router's UI is built on top of OpenWrt, so you can always fall back to OpenWrt GUI as well for configuring more advanced setups.
