Wireguard VPN no longer working after swapping NICs

Featured Replies

i had the wireguard setup and running for a long time

now i had to change the nic assignment due network restructuring

 

there are 2 nics, 1. from intel and 2. from realtek

MAC adresses are totally different

after swapping unraid list 2 macs which are near neighbours

 

the two nics are and were set to use bridge mode

after swapping the eth0 with eth1 the vpn is no longer working

 

i expected this to be an issue with the router, so i have resetted the config completly and reconfigured it again.

 

as this does not help, it has to be something related with the nic swap.

 

i would be glad if there is help or an idea how to fix that.

 

Best regards

If you have already found this, there are some links at the bottom of this manual section to Forum Threads that discuss Wireguard issues.  Perhaps, a request in the one that seems most appropriate to your problem might get a quicker response.

thank you very much for your reply. i was wondering why it stopped working, without changing any parameter in the vpn

and as long as the network connection is normal working in unraid it should work

 

i had also trouble with the modem/router fritzbox 7530ax, i have replaced it with my old device 7560 and reapplied the config the same way..

 

now it works again, so it seemed to be an issue with the static routing but as settings are identically i expect it to be an FritzOS issue
