  1. I'm having a weird issue where all my containers, not only the one configured as wg0 will access through the VPN. My type of access is set as tunneled access for docker. Can it be because I manually restarted my vpn using the CLI and restarted with a different config file? I wanted to change the endpoint server following a schedule. Edit: if I restart via the web UI, then only the chosen container connects through the VPN. If I restart via the CLI, all dockers go through the VPN. I'm definitely not an expert here, but I checked the routing tables before and after in the web UI, and they are identical. Is there something I'm missing? When I restart using the CLI I use the interface settings from the config file generated using the web UI and the peer settings that I get from my provider. Okay, I fixed the issue. I restarted the config through wg-quick up/down and then loaded a new config from a different location. I now backed up the default config generated by Unraid, stop/start through rc.d and then replace the config file in /etc/wireguard. This works well!
  2. I also recently started the journey of reducing the idle power usage of my NAS/server. I find that the power usage during the day with Transmission running is around 50W. In the evening I shut down Transmission, allowing my 3 active drives to go idle and sleep, reducing the power to around 38W. My cores are reacing ~C7 and full package around C2. Yesterday I did some more experiments with my 10GBe NIC. I removed all drives, booted Unraid and measured the power usage. I then removed the NIC, booted Unraid and found that the power usage dropped by 15W! It's an old Dell Broadcom 57810S Dual-Port 10GBASE-T Converged Network Adapter, modded with two 40mm Noctua fans for cooling. So I'm thinking about swapping that out. I saw that @mgutt was using an Intel X550-T1 10GbE (also using RJ45 connection, same as I have). I might be able to get one second-hand for around €120, so if it can save me at least ~8W, it should pay back in a few years, also allowing me to run without fans, which is nice. Do you think that will reduce average load significantly? Another thing is that even without my PCIe NIC, MB network disabled, no hard drives, my NAS still pulls around 15W from the wall. The specs are: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd. B560M DS3H V Intel® Core™ i3-10105 CPU running stock settings 32 GiB DDR4, I'll need to check the brand Samsung 980 1TB NVME ~300W 80 Bronze PSU, I think Corsair, but I'd need to check. It's ~10 years old. 4x 18TB WD Ultrastar DC HC550, 7200RPM 2x4TB WD Red Plus, 99% of the time spun down I already followed the guide. Most motherboard settings are set to power saving. Turbo boost disabled, max sleep state set to S10. Onboard audio disabled, aggressive power management options all on. I do notice that the heatsink on the motherboard can become quite warm to the touch, even when fully idle. It's the heat sink labeled UD in this picture. Any more suggestions, things I can try, components I could swap?
  3. Is there someone who can help me set up AirVPN with Transmission_VPN? I have tried several times but never could get it to work. Edit: nevermind, I got it to work using the regular Transmission container and the Unraid built-in VPN service.
