🥈How to use the Basic/Standard Plans
Scan QR Code or Download
You may either scan the QR Code within the Android/iOS WireGuard App or click Download to import it into either the WireGuard mobile app or Windows/Mac App.
If you chose to Download the configuration file, please upload it to the WireGuard App. If you are on a computer, click "Import tunnel(s) form file". If you are on a phone, click "Create from file or archive". Your popups may look different than the examples below.
Add tunnel port forwarding rules
This is where you set port forwarding rules for your tunnel. This is the part that eliminates the need to port forward from your router. Think of this panel like the Port Forwarding tab on your router. (Note: Anything done here will NOT affect your router's port forwarding rules. This is completely separate, this is your VPN Server's port forwarding rules instead.)
In the IP field (the first box), enter the VPN profile/tunnel's IP. This is typically 10.0.0.2 or 10.253.0.2 but may vary. Check the profile/tunnel's configuration file.
In the "From Port" box, enter the port you want people to connect to your service with.
For example, if the port you want exposed publicly is 1234, you would enter 1234 in the "From Port" box and users would connect to your service with vpnpublicip:1234.
In the "To Port" box, enter the port you want the "From Port" to forward to. This "To Port" is the port on your computer/server that the service is running on.
For example, if the service on your computer/server is running locally on port 25565, enter 25565 in this "To Port" box.
Most apps/services use the TCP protocol but some may use the UDP protocol. Check which protocol your service uses.
Web servers use TCP
Minecraft Java uses TCP
Minecraft Bedrock uses UDP
FiveM may use both TCP and UDP
socat acts as a relay that receives a connection and forwards it so it appears to come from the local machine, while iptables forwarding passes traffic through directly, preserving the original sender’s IP address, provided it is properly configured on the tunnel device.
socat doesn't need any extra setup but all connections will seem as if they're local.
iptables will preserve the original connection IP but requires more setup on your computer/server.
If you are tunneling a specific port (e.g. Minecraft Server)
If you are tunneling a specific port (e.g. Minecraft Server), allow the port as in incoming connection on your device Allow Incoming Port Connection.
