Thanks! I have been banging my head against the wall trying to get WireGuard working using the linuxserver.io wireguard docker image and got nowhere for hours. Using your guide and thanks to the wg-easy docker image I hadup and running in minutes.

I’ve completely rewritten this, focusing on wg-easy as the go-to solution for setting up WireGuard. It’s incredibly simple to use and works seamlessly right out of the box. The previous version of the guide was based on wireguard-ui, but unfortunately, that project hasn’t received an update in quite a while.
With this new approach, if you follow the steps outlined here, you should have WireGuard up and running in no time, without any headaches.

I have been trying to create a QBitttorrent docker container along with a VPN docker container (using TorGuard and WireGuard), to route the QBittorrent traffic through the VPN and while this tutorial doesn’t help with that exact problem, it’s really interesting to see that it seems like you don’t need anything other than WireGuard, is that correct?

Where do I have to apply this static route? Thanks!

Followed your tut, everything seems to work, I can connect to Wireguard server but I can't surf the web nor reaching any of my devices in my internal network. What I'am missing? Thanks!

I have no static public IP, it changes from time to time. How can I implement a DDNS-Domain into the config? Thanks in advance!

wireguard-ui | Warning: `/etc/wireguard/wg0.conf' is world accessiblewireguard-ui | wg-quick: `wg0' is not a WireGuard interfacewireguard-ui | Warning: `/etc/wireguard/wg0.conf' is world accessiblewireguard-ui | [#] ip link add wg0 type wireguardwireguard-ui | Error: Unknown device type.wireguard-ui | Unable to access interface: Protocol not supportedwireguard-ui | [#] ip link delete dev wg0wireguard-ui | Cannot find device "wg0"

Does anybody find a solution to this?I think I’ll be back to this tutorial that works perfectly, although it is not docker.

I have installed it and all services are working, but when I access the web UI and enter the login account user: admin / password: password, I get an error saying I can’t log in. I don’t know what’s wrong, I tried. Changed user/password but still can’t log in, please help me
