WireGuard VPN on Your Seedbox

WireGuard is a modern VPN protocol — faster, simpler, and more secure than OpenVPN. When installed on your seedbox, it creates an encrypted tunnel so all your internet traffic routes through the seedbox’s IP.

Installing WireGuard

  1. Dashboard → Apps → WireGuard → Install
  2. Download the generated config file (.conf) from your dashboard

Split Tunneling

Split tunneling routes only specific traffic through the VPN while the rest uses your normal connection. In your .conf file, change AllowedIPs from 0.0.0.0/0 (all traffic) to specific IP ranges.
