Title: WireGuard not starting correctly after reboot
Post by: cds on March 22, 2026, 10:11:47 PM
Hi there,

since some time I noticed a strange behaviour:

On every reboot WireGuard does not start up correctly - even the log claims it does. None of the Tunnels are working. 100% reproducible.

When I then have to dis-activate and re-activate Wireguard once -> working stable until next reboot.

The WireGuard log does not give any clue, everything looks usual.

Any hints?

Are you using WG to establish outbound tunnels from OPNsense or is OPNsense providing WG for other systens to "dial in"?

If the former, are you using host names (FQDNs) for the peers? Can you use IP addresses instead?
