Problems with Wiregard VPN connection

2024-01-29 11:42:15 - last edited 2024-01-30 09:53:40

Tags: #VPN #VLAN & Multi-Networks

Model: ER7206 (TL-ER7206)

Hardware Version: V1

Firmware Version:

Hello everybody.

Hope someone can help. I'm trying to set up a wireguard VPN server on my ER7206 router following this guide.

https://community.tp-link.com/en/home/forum/topic/619652?sortDir=ASC

But I don't make it working....

It seems I'm not getting an IP address. Maybe its because of several VLANs configured on my router, but I don't know how to sort it out.

Here is my setup:

1. VLAN config:

2. Wireguard Config:

3. Mobile Client Config

4. Peer Config

5. VPN Status Info

Two questions now:
1. What is wrong with my config and what needs to be changed to successful connect to my network?

2. How can I control to what VLAN I'm connecting and how can I archive access and routing between them like with local access?

Thank you and BW

Sebastian

Hi @SebastianH

Thanks for posting in our business forum.

I would appreciate it if you could read the WG setup guide again.

You really have to be careful with the public key. That's why most people don't get it when they use WG at the beginning.

You're right. I had a copy/paste error with the private key..

Now its working.

Only thing I need to figure out now is how to block access to other VLANs or areas of my network.

@SebastianH

I'm interested in that as well.

I'm trying to configure the ACL for that and it works with all VLANs, but not with access from VPN.

The only way I was able to block access to home VLAN was when I did like: Block access to HomeVLAN from everything that is !HomeVLAN.

Unfortunately, that setting was possible to be made only in standalone router. After i connected OC200 controller, I am no longer able to set any rule with !...

Any ideas? :)

Great to know that you figured that out. It was really bothering me when I learned WG VPN at the very beginning. Even if you have the guide next to you. But you will get to it later on when you deal with it more.
