Slate Plus (GL-A1300) WG VPN connection freezes every 10 minutes

I wanted the WG Client device to connect to the WG Server directly within the LAN, not over the WAN/Internet, so of course I changed that to the WG Server’s IP 192.168.10.1 from the perspective of the Client device. My Client device, the Certa, is known to preform with VPN providers using a MTU of 1320. YMMV. Server …
