[Solved] Wireguard vpn tunneled access selects wrong interface


Recommended Posts

Hello,

I used the wireguard plugin for vnp tunneled access to a commencial provider over my onboard 1 Gbit NIC without issues.

The 1 Gbit onboard NIC is connected to my router and over it with the rest of my home network.

 

The otherday I installed additional 5 Gbit PCIe card to connect directly to my main computer with also 5 Gbit PCIe card.

This shall speedup big (100GB) file transfers, which I periodically need to do.

Since not all systems need 5 Gbit, I do not want to buy a 5 Gbit switch just for this single use case.

 

However as soon as I plug in the ethernet cable into 5 Gbit PCIe card, the active tunnel stops handshake and looses connection.

When I remove the cable, the handshake reoccur and the VPN tunnel is connected.

 

I have not found any setting in Unraid GUI, which interface is to be selected.

How can I configure, that Wireguard and other services shall use the onboard NIC?
