NordVPN does not use wireguard, It uses Nordlynx (a proprietary version of wireguard exclusive to NordVPN). from what i understand it can be configured. You will first need to connect using a computer to a Nordlynx server. This allows you to get the credentials for public and private keys. Then create a custom VPN profile using them. Here is a discussion or it: > [@Configure wireguard client to connect to NordVPN servers?](https://forum.gl-inet.com/t/configure-wireguard-client-to-connect-to-nordvpn-servers/10422/15): > > Yeah as Alfie wrote any changes NordVPN make to Wireguard need to be made public. You can ask them for a link to the source code changes they made. Also, im not so sure its a privacy issue. Wireguard requires fixed IP addresses set for each client in the config file, IP’s internally used to identify each connected client INTERNALLY. This is not public in any way. OpenVPN also requires IP’s, but they are not statically set in the config files, they are dynamically issued on each connection, that… FYI I did get it to work but would disconnect after a hour and I had to try 20 different servers to get the connection. --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.gl-inet.com/t/need-idiots-guide-to-getting-wireguard-config-with-nordvpn-on-my-flint-router/21849)._
