Hello there,

Just want to preface that this is for selfhosted purposes, I may be routing my network in other way later.

I wanted to be able to setup a wireguard docker container with gluetun such that I can connect multiple devices to it at home, in order to minimize my “five device limit” with mullvad. I have the following docker compose:

  gluetun:
    image: qmcgaw/gluetun
    container_name: gluetun-wireguard
    restart: unless-stopped
    cap_add:
      - NET_ADMIN
    devices:
      - /dev/net/tun:/dev/net/tun
    volumes:
      - ./gluetun:/gluetun
    environment:
      - VPN_SERVICE_PROVIDER=#
      - VPN_TYPE=wireguard
      - WIREGUARD_PRIVATE_KEY=#
      - WIREGUARD_ADDRESSES=#
      - SERVER_CITIES=#setup#setup
      # Timezone for accurate log times
      - TZ=#
      # Server list updater
      # See https://github.com/qdm12/gluetun-wiki/blob/main/setup/servers.md#update-the-vpn-servers-list
      - UPDATER_PERIOD=24h
    ports:
      - 51820:51820/udp
  wireguard-server:
    image: linuxserver/wireguard
    container_name: wireguard-server
    network_mode: service:gluetun # << important
    cap_add:
      - NET_ADMIN
      - SYS_MODULE
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
      - SERVERPORT=51820
      - PEERS=iphone
      - PEERDNS=auto
    volumes:
      - ./config:/config
      - /lib/modules:/lib/modules
    restart: unless-stopped

Whenever I try connecting to it by iphone, which is my first attempt for the peer, it doesn’t quite work out. Any chance I could get any help?

If I’m making the XY Problem, please let me know. If there is a more apt community, please let me know.
