I have successfully installed a Wireguard client on my router [1]. When I select devices in the router UI to use the VPN [2], I see that they indeed are using the tunnel (IP addresses change accordingly, DNS leaks are reported as gone).
I have a basic access point [3] that allows me to provide Wifi to an outdoor work area. It works nicely. The AP is not a repeater, so it is connected via ethernet to the router (I prefer it this way anyway), nor does this AP include a DHCP server, so IP addresses are issued by the router. Fine.
I want to require any device connecting via the AP to use the VPN, so I included the AP in the list of devices that are supposed to use the tunnel (in the router's UI).
When I do this, however, it is clear that devices connected using the AP are not using the VPN.
Initially I had the AP set to accept a reserved IP address so I tried this using DHCP, to no avail (didn't really expect that to make a difference).
Have I extrapolated this ability in a way that isn't valid, or should this work?
