Model: Archer BE3600  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 1.1.2 Build 20251029

Hello, today I bought a router and set up a VPN client on the router to a Wireguard server, which is in another location. I have a connection to all the devices that are on the router at the Wireguard server, but from the server to the BE3600 router I have no access to the devices.

TPLINK BE3600 ( 192.168.10.1 ) --> WG SERVER (192.168.0.1) (YES - ping, web access, all connections) 

WG SERVER --> TPLINK BE3600 TPLINK (NO ping, NO web access, no connection)

 

I left Allowed IPs 0.0.0.0/0 everywhere, but I tried all sorts of other options.

Hi,

 

The VPNs provided on the current models of Archer routers are not designed to be used bidirectionally.

 

Most probably the firewall is not allowing inbound traffic on the network interface belonging to the VPN client.

Maybe if this is changed to VPN it will work, but I don't have it as an option in interfaces

Hello  @TsvetelinE ,

 

As Woozle mentioned, in our current implementation of the VPN Client on the Archer router, the tunnel is one-way, meaning that the client can actively access the server's network segment, but the server cannot access the client's LAN devices by default.
