Issues with Mint clients

Installing and Using OpenWrt Network and Wireless Configuration
1

I have a Wireguard server running on a remote OpenWrt modem my mobile connects and works okay as did my laptop when it was running W10. Upgraded the laptop to LM22.2 and no joy with the same configuration. I has similar issue the other way again from a Mint desktop to my home Wireguard server running on a Pi4B, again the mobile and the W10 laptop worked. So I am pretty sure it is a Mint issue not OpenWrt or Wireguard specific.

I've managed to get it working using OpenVPN albeit I had to modify the configs from

tls-version-min 1.3 to tls-version-min 1.2 cipher AES-256-CBC to cipher AES-256-GCM

Is there a similar gotcha with Wireguard? Whilst I could find details ref the above changes I cannot find anything hinting at similar for Wireguard.

Modern linux distributions apply crypto security policy, wireguard has nothing to do with tls versions.
Gotcha is on your side.

All versions of Wireguard so far used the same specific crypto suite. There is no way to configure it.
