New to Wireguard and VPNs... how exactly should this work?

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....

Wanted to help you potentially avoid a wild goose chase—port checking tools won’t detect a wireguard port as open…it’s specifically designed to not advertise its presence for security purposes. Bad handshake requests are ignored, making it look like a firewall DROP rule.
