I’m a noob to self-hosting, I have set up some containers but only through watching tutorials on youtube, in reality I barely understand what I’m doing.
I have a wireguard docker container set up, but when I connect to it with my phone, there’s no internet.
Can somebody tell me what I’m doing wrong? I just want to access my server outside my home network.
Here is the docker-compose.
version: "2.1" services: wireguard: image: linuxserver/wireguard container_name: wireguard cap_add: - NET_ADMIN - SYS_MODULE environment: - PUID=1000 - PGID=1000 - TZ=Asia/Singapore - SERVERURL=auto #optional - SERVERPORT=51820 #optional - PEERS=1 #optional - PEERDNS=auto #optional - INTERNAL_SUBNET=10.13.13.0 #optional volumes: - ./config:/config - /lib/modules:/lib/modules ports: - 51820:51820/udp sysctls: - net.ipv4.ip_forward=1 - net.ipv4.conf.all.src_valid_mark=1 restart: unless-stopped
Please tell me if there is anymore information I need to provide.
EDIT: fellas i figured it out, i just had to port foward 51820 on my router :sob: thank you for your help in the comments
Unless you have a real need to use a container, you shouldn’t be running networking anything in a container. It will always perform better closer to the OS without abstractions.
That being said, it sounds like you have an exit-node problem. You can connect, but unless you set split-tunneling on your phone, you have no exit node to provide connectivity. Wireguard is not a traditional VPN in that just connecting to it gives you egress access.
