Unable to get wireguard set up with even a handshake

Featured Replies

Posted

I first got unraid for a NAS a few months ago. I tried to setup unraid but it wasn't working, and I didn't really have time to do anything about it until now. I just reinstalled unraid from scratch and tried setting up unraid again, but I still can't even get a handshake to go through. My wireguard client shows that data is being sent when I'm connected to my mobile hotspot, but the server doesn't show any data being recieved or even a handshake having ever been established. I set up port forwarding of port 51820 through my nest wifi mesh router. 

 

I originally set it up with dynamic DNS on cloudflare, but I switched to just using the external IP address of my home network since I figured the dynamic DNS might be an issue, but this still hasn't fixed anything.

I've been stuck on this issue for many hours. Please help!

I just fixed the issue; I had set up port forwarding on my router, but I have this xfinity modem and it turns out I need to set up port forwarding on that device too, and after that everything is working.
