Re: wireguard vpn ???
You can enable the wireguard module permanently , by editing /etc/modules.load.d/modules.conf
Just add wireguard to the end and reboot the nas.
This way it will be loaded @ boot.

Re: wireguard vpn ???
Thanks for this! Have you tested it? I have Tailscale working fine for me at present, but cutting out the middle man and just running wireguard would be a better solution

Re: wireguard vpn ???
No, i haven`t tried it , but if you run modinfo wireguard you`ll see it is loaded.

I just updated the command in the task scheduler file.
Wireguard works fine on the latest firmware

Re: wireguard vpn ???
My guess would be that the conf file gets overwritten on updates. (Sometimes even on Boot?) The scheduler should remain as written.

Re: wireguard vpn ???
Working great now thank you, although just as a heads up there is a small mistake in your guide! In the port forwarding section you say the protocol should be TCP instead of UDP. Your screengrabs are correct, it's just the text that needs fixing
Re: wireguard vpn ???
Thanks, corrected.
Regarding using task scheduler instead of manual editing the file.
More friendly for beginners
As Gremlin said, In case of a firmware update and the file is overwritten, using the task scheduler at shutdown, we can assure that the module is activated at boot
