We use OpenVPN on pfSense with Viscosity on the clients, or the Android
OpenVPN app. It is a complete Dual-Stack solution for both the servers
and the clients, and because we push more specific IPv6 routes it takes
precedence of the default route as intended. We've been using this for
almost 2 years now on a variation of Windows and MacOS as well as some
phones. It works well.

We use mostly UDP on 1194, unless it's a really crappy hotel wifi and
they use the TCP 443 to get around silly firewalls.

Kind regards,

Seth
