I got the same problem

I got the same problem

how recent did this happen? for me, it just happened out of nowhere today after i reconnected to my wireguard vpn. tried reinstalling it completely which did not help. ended up "fixing" it by enabling hyperv and using NAT, this does not solve the root cause though. system i'm having issues with is on win10 22H2 pro and is fully up to date. clients connecting are primarily linux based.

Hi folks, it looks like you're hitting a known issue documented in the README. Please take a look there and let me know if the workaround helps!

noted. i did switch to NAT which needed hyperv and created a virtual adapter for VMs. NAT seems to actually work much better with my setup and i was able to disable that virtual adapter with no ill effects, so i think i'll use NAT. Thanks!

[micahmo]

I'm glad to hear that! Yes, NAT Routing is a much better option if available on your system. I'm glad to hear it's working for you. If it's alright, I will go ahead and close this issue.

is there a way i can prevent windows from creating "vethernet adapter"? this is turning out to cause more problems because its assigning IPs that conflict with my network

[micahmo]

It might help to change the range of IPs used by devices on your WireGuard network (Edit server configuration > Address). You can also change the range used by NAT routing (NAT Routing > Disable/Enable NAT dropdown button > Specify custom NAT network range), so that you can share the network with other adapters (see #110).

NAT isn't interfering with the wg server, its interfering with the addressing used by my LAN which cannot be changed

having this issue again. how do i fix it? i remember i did something in ncpa.cpl but i forgot what i did
