Would anyone be willing to assist me with a "Road Warrior" VPN setup I am trying to use in WireGuard? I have tried to follow the guide found here:
https://homenetworkguy.com/how-to/configure-wireguard-opnsense/?utm_content=cmp-true
I have captured logs and screenshots, but in short, after making the connection to the VPN using my Android phone (and the official WireGuard client for it) I cannot ping any resources on the desired LAN I have made a VPN connection to.
I am just not sure what my next step(s) would be on how to further troubleshoot this. My OPNSense firewall is connected to the internet via a business class cable modem connection, and I have a public & static IP WAN address from my provider (68.188.xxx.xxx).
Thanks in advance, I am stumped right now and I am getting frustrated...

I recommend you check the Allowed IPs settings on both the server and client, because this error often causes the device to connect but not access the LAN. Hope you fix it soon!

what does the peer status page in OpnSense say? Device connected and current handshake, or not?

if the above shows connected, have you added a firewall rule (for Wireguard Interface) to allow the traffic from your android device to you LAN? And just to ensure: do you make your tests with the android while it's connected to the WLAN (aka same subnet as OpnSense)? If yes then better try from a remote WLAN or via the mobile connection
