Re: Wireguard site to site connected but peers cant use it

It's very difficult to guess with limited info but for basics:
Each router will need a route to the other routers subnet via the wireguard interface.
For testing you can also change the allowed address in the wg peer on each end to 0.0.0.0/0 to debug if its a mismatch in the allowed networks.
