These commands are for Debian/Ubuntu-based systems. Commands may vary on other distributions.

Troubleshooting

Connection Issues

If you cannot connect or ping 10.14.0.1:

  • Ensure WireGuard is properly installed and running
  • Check if your firewall allows UDP traffic on port 51820
  • Verify no other VPN is running simultaneously
  • Try re-downloading and re-importing the configuration

Common Issues

No handshake received

Your connection might be blocked. Check corporate firewall settings or try a different network.

Configuration file error

Re-download the config file. Ensure you're logged in and have an active subscription.
