Hi there. I’m on a steep learning curve, so please forgive my stupid questions.
I have some questions about using the AR300M with wireguard.
What I want to do is use the AR300M as the connection point to the internet, rather than via the wifi that is internal to my laptop. So the setup I want would be:
Laptop (ethernet cable to) → AR300M → ISP.
I have no problem ssh to the AR300M. I have not yet installed wireguard - I don’t want to brick the AR300M, so am seeking clarification.
- In my proposed configuration, the AR300M would be a client - is that correct?
- When I come to run wireguard install script (opkg install wireguard) will that overwrite the openvpn that is installed already?
- Will wireguard always be running whenever I power up the AR300M? if not:
(a) How will I turn it on; and, if opvpn and wire guard are both on the AR300M,
(b) How will I switch between openvpn and wireguard? - Now the bit where I am flummoxed. How do I insert the wireguard keys I have generated into the AR300M? The instructions here are a bit confusing. In my laptop, for instance, I merely copy the config files into the fireguard directory.
Thanks for your time reading this and for any help and clarification you can provide.
