Comment on Help with iptables, using nixos setting up a wiregaurd server for friends
Steamymoomilk@sh.itjust.works 5 days agook ill try to explain to the best of my ability and simply it.
i no longer want to use tailscale, because of accounts. i used to use tailscale for the minecraft server i want my friends to be able to acess only 192.168.8.170 on my local network and all other traffic to not be routed through my vpn but my friends to have acess to there internet on there LAN. example, we can play minecraft on the server on my network and we can be in a group call in signal. meaning friend 1 and 2 are using there internet connection locally, and only 192.168.8.170 being routed.
We also had some connectivity issues with tailscale, where friend 1 would be on and friend 2 would lag out of the server randomly. when if we played a game through steam we wouldnt have any connection issues. my friend is also very forgetful and cant log into his tailscale account, which is another reason why i wanna ditch tailscale.

Okay then if Wireguard, you need to punch through your NAT and allow that port access to the world, then to fix your outing issue, you need to look up split-tunneling. That should solve the issues you’re seeing if I’m reading this right.
