Posted: Sun Jan 25, 2026 16:09 Post subject: No connection with Advanced Setting - PBR
I'll try to explain my problem in more detail:
I set up a Wireguard tunnel using the config file of my VPN providers Surfshark and Proton VPN. Works fine. But as soon as I try to set "route selected sources via WAN" and enter the IP address I don't have any or very slow internet access on this source.
I doesn't matter what kind of source (Mac, SAT receiver, Phone …) and it happens with Surfshark and Proton.
It used to work quite a while ago. Has anything changed? Do I need certain settings regarding DNS or anything else?
Help would be very appreciated!

I think I found my problem in the basic setup. When I delete the tunnel I don’t have any internet connection.
And I don’t get it to work. My modem is 192.168.1.1, my router 192.168.2.1.
What do I have to fill in the basic setup page? Gateway, DNS? Right now it’s empty.
It used to work but I changed my internet service, maybe that’s the reason?
Thanks for any help!

---> do you use killswitch as this will prevent WAN to work ???
Also @ Network set up > those 2 fields must be left at 0.0.0.0 they are in use in very rare cases, mostly for AP/WAP mode...
Also try to disable SFE ...Shortcut Forwarding Engine...apart of that...newer builds use iptables-nft if you have any iptables rules, no idea if this went to Marvell routers but probably...it could be a reason...try newer build or older build and see if its is working as it should..im not WG user, but check the documentation too...
If im not wrong there ware some outrages of some DNS services...recently..so, all the Inet structure is kind of a still wobbling...my quad9 DNS went to banana mode and was so, slow to none...took me a hell of a time to diagnose and try to obtain information and find out..it was the DNS , as i do have a VPN too...and their side was wonky legs too...but now its getting back to normal...try another DNS...lots of fun around this days...
In your case check if ISP is blocking your WG or try a nonstandard port...but i doubt..in general my OpenVPN PBR is working as it should...no idea about WG that's why i ve said check the doc's _________________ Atheros

Thanks for your answer. No kill switch.
Wireguard works fine, but when I just connect my router to the ISP modem without VPN, without tunnel I cannot get any connection. That's the strange thing happening here. _________________ Linksys WRT3200ACM

hmm do you just delete tunnel...and wait ..or you delete tunnel/disable WG and then reboot...it should be the proper way...i guess your WAN is dynamic DHCP and you obtain WAN IP from ISP...and it should be ok...and then again to diagnose the issue...read the WG guide, then expose your config and provide steps to recreate the error...prove of concept (POC) _________________ Atheros
