I run WireGuard on my router to hit my LAN services (SAMBA, home assistant, etc) from afar.

But when I enable the VPN client on my router, I can no longer access LAN services over Wireshark. “Allow LAN access is set to ‘true’” on the UI (Merlin).

Has anyone else run into this? Any ideas?

    There are two solutions to this:

    1. Add routing to your wireguard server instance to allow the VPN intermediary subnet to accept connections from your lan subnet or
    2. Allow your wireguard client to split-tunnel, so it can reach subnets that aren’t reachable outside your WG tunnel.
