Hi.  
In B-1300 there isn’t toggle button like AR 750 o 750S then I’d modify one of the 2 buttons, preferably mesh button, to disable/enable Wireguard VPN client.  
I’have read posts about but referring to other models.  
How can I do this?  
Thanks

</div>

Can you check if there is script in /etc/rc.button/ ?

If not pls check /etc/hotplug.d/

In /etc/rc.button I have:  
BTN\_0, BTN\_1, failsafe, power, reset and rfkill.  
In /etc/hotplug.d I have:  
30-mesh-button, 40-wsplcd, 50-wps, 51-wps-reset, 52-wps-supplicant, 53-wps-repacd, 54-wps-extender.

This is the correct file you need to edit to customize the mesh button.

Can You e explain to me how I modify it for?  
Do I have to delete all in the file?  
Can I use the content of the file of toggle button of my AR-750? But it’s a switch not a button…  
Thanks

Each router is different. AR750 will have script in /etc/rc.button for the switch button function.

For B1300, you need to check the content of /etc/hotplug.d/30-mesh-button to understand how it works first.

Anyone can help me about?  
Command to start or stop wireguard client is enough easy but how to check the previous state of wireguard to start or stop it?  
If WG is active then stop it else start it…  
Thanks

I have tried to modify the file with my personal script but releasing button there’s not action. So I have edited reset button file with the same script and it’s works perfectly.
