EDIT: It seems something is causing my wireguard hanshake to fail. I can’t find much on this particular error except “try rebooting the wg server”. I rebooted everything, and I can’t get it to connect unless the clients are already connected to the home wifi....
Connect with your phone and check your public ip address (you can do this by googling or using a site like WhatIsMyIP. It should show the same IP as if you were on your home network without the vpn connected.
If that’s working you could try actually connecting to the minecraft server. It might be set up to not respond to pings. You’ll want to use the same IP to connect to it as you’d use if you were on the same network
As others have said, definitely seems like a port forwarding issue. If you’re still trying to solve this, what do your port forward rules look like on your router?
New to Wireguard and VPNs... how exactly should this work?
