FAQ
After you completed the WireGuard VPN server setting, you can login the router and configure the settings.
In VPN ==> WireGuard ==> Local, fill in the client's private key and tunnel IP.
In Peer, fill in the server's public key and tunnel IP, as well as other configuration information.
In Peer, click the "ACCESS" button to connect.
When WireGuard connects to the server, there will be an increase in Data Received and Data Transmitted.
One customer participated in a comparison test before launching his project. Hope it's helpful. His report compares three leading models: RUTX50, M357-5G, and Yhiott R5100, evaluating their key features, performance, and suitability for industrial use cases.
