Wireguard Not Working DSM 7

[yuljk]

Hi - I'm running the latest DSM 7 release and I'm trying to connect to Mullvad VPN via wireguard.

I've placed my downloaded config file in the correct location and renamed accordingly.

I get the following when starting the container..

[#] ip link add wg0 type wireguard
Unable to access interface: Protocol not supported
RTNETLINK answers: Operation not supported
[#] ip link delete dev wg0
Cannot find device "wg0"

and it never starts.

The container is running with the highest privileges and I have set the PUID and PGID to the administrator user (for testing)

Any ideas?

Many thanks

You need to install the Wireguard module in your DSM7 installation. DSM7 uses an old Linux kernel that doesn't have Wireguard support.

https://hub.docker.com/r/blackvoidclub/synobuild71

That docker image will build a .SPK package that will add Wireguard support to DSM7.

There's also some prebuilt SPKs but I didn't have any luck with them on my Synology:
