      Are there common use cases for OpenVPN that WireGuard can't fulfill?

      In a simple remote user/road warrior situation, are there certain file types, LAN access, or other features or functions that don't work, may never work with WireGuard?

        @pfgate Not sure what you mean by file types but LAN access, that's the whole point of a VPN so yeah, it does that.
        Can you be more specific with what you're looking for?
        The WireGuard clients are no where near as feature packed as OpenVPN but they work.

          Just looking for a situation where WireGuard might not work, maybe a port is blocked, TCP versus UDP, streaming video files, using in Europe, Asia, etc.,
