Wireguard server provides access to home network but not internet

Wednesday

Tags: #WireGuard

Model: Archer BE230

Hardware Version: V1

Firmware Version: 1.1.3 Build 20241211 rel.47943(4555)

I have set up a wireguard server and added an account(iphone), the account can access devices on the local network and ping devices while connected through wireguard but can not reach the internet despite having 'Internet and home network' slected in the configuration page. My internet set up has a vlan ID so I am wondering if that may be the root cuase.

Hi,

I don't know if the VLAN ID could cause this problem.

However, it has been discovered on a couple of router models that having "DNS Privacy" set to DoT or DoH can cause the issue you described. So, you might want to check that and if applicable, set "DNS Privacy" to None for the time being.

@woozle Hi,

Thank you for the suggestion. I have just tested with DNS privacy disabled but the issue persists so the issue is elsewhere.
