Wireguard & Wireless tethering

Madsumm · 2022-06-20T13:24:26.753Z

I setup manual Wireguard. It connects quickly via WAN cable link.
However, when I disconnect the cable and tethers the router to a wifi spot, Wireguard will not connect.
It reported REKEY-TIMEOUT error in the logs only when tethering to another wifi.
Strange.

Not sure about the reason as I didn’t met this problem.

Is this your own wireguard or a commercial wireguard service?

Its my own Wireguard server.

So can you private message a working config so that I can try?

I do have the same issue on the new Slate AX, described below

@alzhao if you find a solution, please do also let me/us here know

GL-AXT1800 (Slate AX): Wireguard client connect error (REKEY TIMEOUT) Technical Support for Routers

Hi Lupus, thanks for the quick followup! Appreciate it. Hm, actually, the timezones were indeed different. However the same error still persists, even after putting the Slate AX also into the right timezone/also on UTC. (also rebooted the router twice, removed and re-added the configs, etc. to make sure…) Thanks a lot Michael Edit: Think this may be affecting more devices/users. @hajjouj just now posted same issue on Flint after upgrade to 4.0.0 release 2 I am on 4.0.0 release 3, compiled…

Thanks a lot
