Anyone got a recommendation for a router with Wireguard support baked in? I've been running PiVPN on a separate box but since I need a new router anyways and it's not going to be supported, that might be a viable replacement.



Recently we needed a customer in a different country to be able to connect to a wireguard instance and I didn't want to deal with the support headache of walking them through the flashing process. While I was looking for devices that come with OpenWRT preinstalled, I came across FriendlyElec that looked quite decent.

Eventually we ended up building a custom Raspberry Pi image.


Ubiquiti UDM-Pro has it, but I'm not sure how they're regarded in popular opinion these days. I've had good luck with everything but the PoE on mine, and they gave me a free injector to fix that.


You can give us a try, https://github.com/spr-networks/super, https://supernetworks.org/. Wireguard is well integrated. We also have a tailscale plugin, and more vpn plugins on the way


You can easily install Wireguard on EdgeOS (VyOS fork) 1.x and 2.x and 3.x will have it natively. The OS is kind of RIP otherwise, so I cannot recommend it, but Ubiquiti just released a new UnifiOS-based router with 5 2.5 GHz ports saturating 1.6 GHz with IDS. That, or some random AliExpress x86-64 router with OPNsense.


GLiNet routers have that. So do the Asus ROG routers, but they don't have NAT acceleration.


Protectli Vault micro appliance running PFSense with the Wireguard module installed.

Perhaps overkill but have been running this for many years with zero issues. It does everything though so configuration/setup can take a bit of time.


Mikrotik hAP ax3 or any router with RouterOS that supports wireguard natively.


Opnsense has it. Never got it to work though.


Pfsense has it
