Wireguard Wireguard on RT-AX88U

[ljg1000]

I know this should be obvious, but I am a bit confused. I have an RT-AX88U using the latest release Merlin software. I was wondering if the ASUSWRT now supports Wireguard for this model and/or when Asuswrt-Merlin may support Wireguard. My recollection is that Merlin is waiting on a finalized implementation of Wireguard in ASUSWRT. I believe it can be implemented in Asuswrt-Merlin via SSH/non-GUI. In this case I am unclear if there would br VPN Director support.

Also, I believe some ASUS routers do offer it: https://itigic.com/we-tested-wireguard-vpn-on-asus/

Your understanding is mine as well. The only support for WG is as an add-on using the CLI. And therefore, there is no support for it using the VPN Director in the GUI. That's going to require full integration of WG into the GUI. That's the downside of a side-channel installation. YOU become totally responsible for any type of integration w/ the existing system (e.g., policy based routing).

9.0.0.4.386_55919 is Asuswrt beta firmware, the first RC3-1 from Aug, 2021

@ljg1000
I looked at that solution too but as @Tech9 already mentioned that this is not supported by VPN Director and it is too much hussle to get it to work.
Especially when you, like i do, need to bypass the working VPN Cliënt fo cenrtain devices.
So it means we must just wait till Merlin gets it done but I have no clue if he did set a timeframe for implementing and completing the feature.
Also I guess I am not the only one.

Keep an eye on the @Martineau Wireguard Manager thread:

Wireguard - Session Manager - Discussion (3rd) thread

another 6 months are up so, details of @Martineau's WireGuard manager can be found here and @ZebMcKayhan's invaluable setup guide here. Following on from #938 in the second thread Having only a single computer over vpn could prove difficult with ipv6. ideally you should make an ipv6 rule for...

From what I read earlier today, he is working on both a Web GUI and VPN Director integration.
Look towards the end of the thread.

I have an AX88U running wg_manager in a site-to-site (the remote is an AX86U) and it is running quite well with wg_manager at both ends.

For more detailed information, @ZebMcKayhan has written a very well done setup guide:

So, i read several threads and i did this:

1 installed amtm, used ir to format a 16 kingston usb 3 pendrive and reboot router
2 used amtm to install entware on the pendrive
3 used amtm to install wg_manager

This is the outcome of the installation:

then I created a peer and succesfully QR to my android BUT when I replied YES to start 'server' Peer (wg21) this error came out:

i did nothing different than using the interface options... what should i have done different or how do i fix this errors ?

Thank You.
