[Request feature] Add Amnezia VPN to the Gl.inet interface

Routers VPN, DNS, Leaks
1

I saw that it is possible to add Amnezia VPN, but only via Luci, and I wasn’t able to do it—it’s too technical for me. Would it be possible to add Amnezia VPN alongside OpenVPN or Wireguard in the standard GL.inet interface?

I sometimes travel to countries where standard VPNs don’t work. However, Amnezia VPN always works. For example, during my trip to Russia, my usual Wireguard client couldn’t connect to my home router, but with Amnezia VPN and the Wireguard obfuscation option, the connection worked perfectly.

Adding Amnezia VPN as a feature could attract many customers looking for a high-performance travel router and would strengthen its position as a worldwide leader in the travel router segment.

Hello,

A great feature request.

I will collect it and submit to the PM team to advance the pre-research work.

Thank you.

And here’s a ready-to-compile project from Github awg-openwrt/kmod-amneziawg at master · Slava-Shchipunov/awg-openwrt · GitHub It cannot be compiled for Qualcomm ipq53xx (Slate 7 device) at the moment cause there’s no target directory on https://mirror-03.infra.openwrt.org/releases/23.05.0/targets/ for ipq53xx (specifically ipq5332).

I know that Qualcomm is not eager to share the proprietary WiFi drivers for ipq5332 with OpenWrt community. So - as you have access to them and have successfully compiled the OpenWrt for Slate 7 device - could you please compile this project for Slate 7 as well and make it available for installation in LUCI?

Many thanks in advance!

Please contact the author and request to compile the install package of "aarch64_cortex-a53, op23.05".

Except those parameters you need to state the target which is ipq5332 for Slate 7 device. And, as I stated earlier, there’s no target directory on Index of /releases/23.05.0/targets/ for ipq5332 - hence compilation ends up with error.

@Bruce Any comments? Is it possible for you (as you have an SDK) to compile the kmod?

Hi,

In v4.9 firmware, we will officially support AmneziaWG in the GL GUI.

Slate7 will also support it, please wait.

Let's first try if we can compile this kmod, and it will be uploaded to the repository if it succeeds to compile.

Hello,

We released a beta firmware to test the new feature AmneziaWG in a small range, currently available for the Beryl AX/MT3000.

Warm reminder: as it is a test firmware, there may be some instability, please do not use it in the working environment.

Now you can use AmneziaWG to make your VPN connection more robust using AmneziaWG!

Please obtain the test firmware and report the issue from following thread:

  1. You can manually export profiles with obfuscation protocols in AmneziaWG and upload them to your router manually.
  2. If you have two Beryl AX/MT3000s (one for WG server and one for WG client), you can enable "Obfuscation" on the WG server router and generate a new profile with Obfuscation Parameters, and import to WG client router to experience this advanced feature:

Great news indeed!

Very cool. Can you please prepare that for op24 version, too? Thank you.

Only small-scale testing.
It will be supported in the OP24 firmware in the future.

How was the tessting on Beryl AX/MT3000? Hope it worked fine!

Any chance we can get it on Slate 7 as well please? Many thanks in advance!

Hello,

Thank you for your interest in GLiNet's firmware features.

The current AmneziaWG test of Beryl AX/MT3000 is going smoothly, and many users have reported that the VPN connection and speed performance are stable.

At this time, we have not expanded the testing scope.
Yes the Slate7 will be supported, but it won't come soon, please be patient.

Thanks Bruce, I think this can be useful if a vacation location blocks wireguard connections since slate 7 is my main travel router. :slight_smile:

Thank you for your information.

We will speed up testing and add AmneziaWG support to Slate 7 in v4.9 firmware.

Our R&D plan is to add AmneziaWG to the GL 4.9 SDK for models that support v4.9 firmware.

When is it expected for Flint 3? Any way to get a beta to test it? Its badly needed here in the UAE and FLint 3 being a new product it would be nice if support would come ASAP

Thanks Bruce

What's the timeline for 4.9 on flint 3?

21

I have no idea when will GL SDK officially enter the v4.9 era, may it be 2026 Q2...

But I think that the Flint3 is definitely on the first batch of upgrade lists.

BTW, here I expected in advance that in November (most likely) in our forum will release an external test event for brand-new functions, and the test target models are Flin2 and Flint3.
I would like to say that there are two test functions. One is the AmneziaWG VPN, and another one is a powerful function!

In other words, you will be able to experience AmneziaWG obfuscated VPN in advance in Flint3 in November.

See you then!
