Ordering the server

Step 1 of the series: Bypass internet restrictions and protect your privacy on public Wi-Fi

First, you need to order a server. I’m using netcup as a provider, but you can choose a different one as long as it offers similar features.

To use a server as a Tailscale exit node, you don’t need much computing power or memory. In general, the smallest vServer from netcup with 2 GB RAM and 2 vCores should be sufficient.

With the cheaper offers from Netcup, pay attention to the minimum contract period, which is sometimes longer than one month.

After completing the ordering process, you will receive the login credentials from netcup.
