Stops working in about a day, works again if reinstalled

Open pystrats opened this issue 2 years ago • 6 comments

This happens with certain hosting providers, but not the others. Clients connect successfully to the server first, for about a day, but then stop. Removing old clients' configurations and adding new clients doesn't help. If you uninstall Wireguard and then install it again following ./wireguard-install.sh prompts, all works again. Any ideas why something like that can happen and how to fix it? Thanks.

Similar issue, on AWS's Lightsail

Yes, this happens on all AWS EC2 instances for me as well. And I encountered the same issue with other, smaller hosting providers.

I noticed the same with OCI hosted VMs, and only for some clients. No handshake and no internet connectivity.

Anyone got any more data for this? I have exactly the same problem on a Ubuntu Linode.

I created a Nano Linode and installed Ubuntu 23.04 as a test. Wireguard has run consistently for 73+ days. I am none the wiser.
