Inter-Yard VPN with WireGuard: 5–10 Locations, 70% Internet Cost Savings
ChallengeInternet access costs of ±IDR 100 million per month for 5–10 locations
Every yard and branch office used a dedicated internet connection with a public IP: two main offices at 100 Mbps, other yards varying from 10–50 Mbps. The bill was around IDR 100 million every month — expensive, even though the actual need was just one: connecting all locations to the main server at the Jakarta office hosting Email, Database, and ERP.
SolutionA local ISP at each location, securely connected through a cloud WireGuard hub
WireGuard Hub in the Cloud
The cloud becomes the only point with a public IP (WireGuard server). All yards and offices are routed to this hub — no more dedicated public IP per location.
MikroTik as a WireGuard Client
Each yard uses a local ISP (broadband) that is far cheaper. The on-site MikroTik builds a WireGuard tunnel to the hub automatically and reliably.
Central Main Server in Jakarta
Email, Database, and ERP live at the Jakarta office (branch) and can only be accessed from the internal network — not from the open internet.
