Your first option until you get settled is to use an SSH reverse proxy:

    ssh -D 9999 [email protected]
Then configure your browser to use local port 9999 for your SOCKS5 proxy.

This gets you a temporarily usable system and if you can tunnel this way successfully installing some WireGuard or OpenVPN stuff will likely work.

EDIT: Thanks it's -D not -R



It’s -D, -R is for forwarding specific ports.


Thanks I have updated my comment as well.

Sorry for the brain rot!
