I’ve hit a wall with a weird Wireguard issue. I’m trying to connect my phone (over cell) to my home router using wireguard and it will not connect.

  • The keys are all correct.
  • The IPs are all correct.
  • The ports are open on the firewall.
  • My router has a public IP, no CGNAT.

The router is opnsense, I have a tcpdump session going and when I attempt a connection from the phone I see 0 packets on that port. I am able to ping the router and reach the web server sitting behind it from the phone.

I have a VPS that I configured WG on and the phone connects fine to that. I also tested configuring the VPS to connect to my home router and that also works fine.

I’m really at a loss as to where to go next.

Edit 2: I completely blew out the config on both sides and rebuilt it from scratch, using a different UDP port, and it all appears to be working now. Thanks for everyone’s help in tracking this down.

Edit: It was requested I provide my configs.

opnsense:

    Meant to say if you still get stuck, run Wireshark on your FW and your VPS and run a tcp dump and filter the traffic to see where the data stops.

    You can also use traceroute to your public IP on the port 51820 and check your connectivity or even curl: -v http:////publicip:51820
