Setting up a WireGuard tunnel to allow home Unraid server access

Featured Replies

I am new to Unraid and apologize for my ignorance as I am likely in over my head.

 

I have recently set up my unraid and would like to be able to use wire guard to access my server files as if it was a locally attached nas / server.  I set up a tunnel with a peer on the unraid, downloaded wireguard on an off site computer and my cellphone.  Looking at wiregaurd on the peer, it shows an active connection and the transfer shows data sent but no data received.  I don't see anything on my unraid indicating activity on the tunnel.

 

I have pinged both the WAN ip and the local IP of the unraid and I get 4 packets sent and 0 received.  I have tried using the Wan IP through a browser as directed, on the peer connection but I don't know what port to use.  I tried the wg0 and wg1 port but to no avail.  I tried using the file explorer as well.

 

I am directing my nas to my routers IP wan ip adress, it is dynamic but I don't think that is a problem in the short term -- long term I might use a domain that I own.  I have a tp-link router and I believe it does the equivalent of port forwarding by DAT virtual servers.  I have forwarded the Wg0 and Wg1 ports listed on the Unraid wire guard to the unraid local ip.  I selected HTTP and all (both TCP and Udp)  but I have tried most combinations of the two. 

 

One thing of note, I temporarily forwarded port 80 to my nas on my router and I was able to use a browser to login to unraid, though not access the files.  It made me wonder if only certain ports can be used on my router, but I am not sure if that is a possible issue.  The port suggested by Unraid for wg0 is a 5 digit number and wg1 is a 3 digit number.

 

Any help will be appreciated
