Chris--This guide is fantastic. Thank you for putting it together. It helped me tremendously.
this channel should have 1m viewers and 2m videos ;-)
Thanks for the guide. I'm keen on trying it out, specifically for remote gaming
Chris I really love your instructional videos they are very informative. Thanks a lot!
Happy to hear that!
Best guide ever! Thank you!
Is there anything that needs to be added in the command/firewall area? thank you!
After enabling the wireguard tunnel, the router loses internet connection until the tunned disabled. Something seems wrong with firewall or routing.
You can Connect another Dd-wrt router like a Client ?
Thanks for the guide this is great! Just one question, how can I communicate to devices on my main network, for example RDP into a local pc or stream media from a plex server? I can’t seem to be able to rdp into a local windows pc.
Hey Chris this is awesome. Just a quick question : once I set it up ,I also have a main router thats port forwarding. But do the other devices need to have a peer account too or they function normally if the get connected via wifi ?
What router is used here? I flashed 2, WRT54G v 3, and the same v5. Does not offer Wireguard in tunnel.
Nicely done! I have a curious but probably common problem. I need to setup a reverse ssh/vpn connection *from* a DD-WRT router (say R1) to a remote network device running SSHD or some such thing (say R2). R1 has a 4G LTE connection and the provider's network gives a NAT'ed outbound connection..(ugh!). I guess that is common for 4GLTE providers. It's been ages since i fiddled deeply with ssh but it would seem trivial to setup a cron job to open a persistent reverse connection. I've just never tried running client daemons on DD-WRT. Any suggestions?
So I use NORD VPN currently setup in OpenVPN on my DDWRT router so all my clients/devices run through the VPN via DHCP on the router.. I want to create my own VPN using wireguard. Is this possible? Id assume id creat a server as shown in the video. But would I have to add each client on my network as a peer??
Chris thanks for info, Can I set up remote dd-wrt router to connect site to site?
Nice guide, small error during phone configuration, you write 10.0.4.6/32 but should of course be 10.4.0.6/32.
there is no wireguard client for linux fedora, it is such a pain! there's plenty of explanation for wireguard server and client but with fedora the config file isn't populating with all info. Hours in the void.
can i use DD WRT is VPN client so i can share my wireguard BPN with my tv and devices that doesn't have an app ?
Hi Chris, thanks for one more great video. For some reason, I have no internet after activating wg tunnel on my client. Any suggestions?
Same for me. Enabing wireguard kills the main internet.
If I also use ipv6 it needs to be configured differently, it works?
Nice, but nowadays you can do it even more easy. you can export a client config file which can be used on the client
hmmm my one dont show option TUNNELS?
After spending two day on setting this up, I tell that this video IS OUTDATED OR NOT CORRECT .
The correct procedure is in DDWRT Wireguard (server) setup guide pdf on the DDWRT website. Don't forget to click on "Make Peer Config" button
As usual there’s something wrong with your instructions. Now my router running the ddwrt doesn’t have Internet connection. The same happened with the IOT network video. It didn’t have any Internet connection. I had to follow somebody else’s tutorial for it to work. If you don’t well know about the subject, don’t make videos.
What other video source did you use?
Please share which tutorial you used, Thank you
