      Hello there,
      I am trying to set up a Wireguard Foreign VPN on the Wireguard app.
      I am using duckdns.org to host a DNS.
      Does anyone know how to set up a Wireguard Foreign VPN on the app?

      Thank you,
      ~ Thrashbang.

        @Thrashbang What do you mean by a foreign VPN?
        Wireguard is Wireguard. Doesn't matter what country is in. You configure it the same no matter what.

          @Jarhead, I want to use Wireguard to get around region locking. How would I go about doing this?

            @Thrashbang well, in short terms:
            you'd need a (wireguard / vpn) server in a country that provides your wanted IP.
            Then you could set your server and app so that all traffic goes thru the wireguard tunnel.

            Since most ppl do not have access to such a setup, there are some services (that cost money) that do that for you. You can set the country the tunnel comes out (therefore the geo IP).
            BUT: imho such services are mostly bs (sorry). You never really know what those services do with their (your) data, they often have funny locations and overall often seem kinda...well...bs. So, you better look twice and make sure you chose a reliable company. Search for VPN provider, VPN geo lock...you'll find a lot..
