I’m a noob to self-hosting, I have set up some containers but only through watching tutorials on youtube, in reality I barely understand what I’m doing.

I have a wireguard docker container set up, but when I connect to it with my phone, there’s no internet.

Can somebody tell me what I’m doing wrong? I just want to access my server outside my home network.

Here is the docker-compose.

version: "2.1" services: wireguard: image: linuxserver/wireguard container_name: wireguard cap_add: - NET_ADMIN - SYS_MODULE environment: - PUID=1000 - PGID=1000 - TZ=Asia/Singapore - SERVERURL=auto #optional - SERVERPORT=51820 #optional - PEERS=1 #optional - PEERDNS=auto #optional - INTERNAL_SUBNET=10.13.13.0 #optional volumes: - ./config:/config - /lib/modules:/lib/modules ports: - 51820:51820/udp sysctls: - net.ipv4.ip_forward=1 - net.ipv4.conf.all.src_valid_mark=1 restart: unless-stopped

Please tell me if there is anymore information I need to provide.

EDIT: fellas i figured it out, i just had to port foward 51820 on my router :sob: thank you for your help in the comments

    Beyond the other comments is your public IP on ipinfo.io etc something like 100.64.X.X or 10.X.X.X?

    If so, you’re behind a CG-NAT and raw wireguard will not work. I say this so you don’t waste time configuring something that will never work. Ignore the below if you have a real public IP.

    Some ISPs will allow you to get a real dynamic ipv4 address for free, or you can configure ipv6 but any clients that you connect will also need public ipv6 support.

    Otherwise, consider tailscale/headscale/netbird (SaaS or on a VPS) which have NAT traversal support.
