Deco X50-5G VPN WireGuard Server setup

16 hours ago

Model: Deco X50-5G

Hardware Version:

Firmware Version: 1.2.0

Hello together,

I have some issues with my Deco X50-5G to set up an VPN WireGuard Server.
This was the FAQ and I have used the same settings:

TP-Link DYNDNS is working fine nslookup shows the right IP.

My first question, is port forwarding necessary?

Can I use the same settings from the FAQ when the DECO X50-IP is 192.168.1.100?

Hope someone can help me.

Thanks in advance

Joe

Hi, welcome to the community.

If your SIM carrier is using CG-NAT service, port forwarding is necessary but might not be on Deco X50-5G.

Between the Deco and ISP SIM service, there is one more firewall/NAT for the VPN connection to get through.

"when the DECO X50-IP is 192.168.1.100"

Is the 192.168.1.100 the IPv4 address on the Deco X50-5G? Did the DDNS lookup report another IP address?

Thank you very much and best regards.
