      I have WG up and running in a "road warrior" mode - seems to work exactly as expected. But when I check the system logs, I see multiple messages of "tun_wg0: loop detected" in a row - typically 10-20 in rapid succession. There don't appear to be any other log entries immediately before or after.

      Any ideas what could be causing this or how to fix it?

          @pfguy2018 Are you reusing the same subnet on the tunnel as on your LAN? WG is Layer3, so you can't pass ethernet frames across the tunnel, only IP packets. Sounds like a conflict somewhere
