Need help with VPN

I am ready to pull the trigger and install vanilla 25.12.6 and some folks make it sound easy

  1. I need easy-to-follow help on adding luci-proto-wireguard (just asking)

  2. where do i get BOTH wg0.conf and cli.conf
    I have one IP (reserved) I want to route thru VPN.
    I don't want to install any extra s/w

  3. In my setup I don't use IPv6

Anything else?

Depends on your make/model of device, but generally, yes.

Use Firmware Selector to have an image already include it (including luci-proto-wireguard should add the other dependencies such as wireguard-tools and kmod-wireguard).

If you use Wireguard config files, you'd get it from the VPN provider.

OK.

Maybe my notes will help:
WireGuard Client Setup Guide

If you want just one of your LAN clients by its IP address to route via the VPN and not all your traffic then you need Policy Based Routing.

You can do it manually so that you do not have to add extra software or download the PBR-app
