    Can you tap on "VPN Server" then "WireGuard", then look at the port forwarding and see if it is detecting the forward?

    Here is a quick article on how to check VPN services https://help.firewalla.com/hc/en-us/articles/360025150454-Troubleshooting-Can-t-connect-to-the-Firewalla-VPN-Server

    The most common issue is either no public IP, or port forwarding to the wrong device.

    I have set the Gateway to "Bridge mode" per Comcast recommendations (on their website) if i am using a different device as my router. I have FWP in router mode. The VPN WG section in the app says "complete". What rules am I missing??

    I have rules:

    Traffic from and to Internet for wireguard

    Traffic from and to wireguard for all devices

     

    Still not connecting into the box from a PC with the wireguard profile.

    The Firewalla app is seeing the FWP ok, and my Linksys app is seeing the mesh devices. Speed tests show an internet is connected on site, just not remotely.

    What does the port forwarding section say? and where you are connecting the PC from (have you tried a different network)?

    I finally disabled bridge mode on the gateway. Then I setup all of my port forwarding I needed for VPN and other software. Comcast just makes it seem more difficult than it should be.
