Well done, Scott. Seemed like a flawless setup! I liked that you left the oopsies in the video, makes you seem more human! Not a superNetworkingGuru

HiScott. Thanks for the video. I tried it your way but unfortunately it is not possible.
To create the file some commands need to be installed on the computer.
jp command
gedit command

At 7:15 you said that you are connected with a NordVPN server and then suddenly you need to be connected with a wireguard server to type in that sudo wg show code. That means I have to stop the NordVPN connection and start a wireguard connection? How does this fit? How can I mix the wireguard public key and the nordvpn private key?

Thanks for a feedback.
Have a nice day

First of all, thanks for the comprehensive tutorial that is accessible to everyone, but understood. I would like to ask you a question that goes beyond your tutorial:
If I create a wireguard server and connect remotely with a client, is it possible to route the internet traffic of that client to the NordVPN client?
What currently happens is that if I connect with my smartphone to the wireguard server, I can access the services on my Lan, but the smartphone surfs the internet showing the IP of my ISP. On the unifi site they say to set a routing rule as you did in this tutorial to route the traffic from the VPN server to the VPN client, but in fact the VPN server is not listed. Even the support said that despite what is on the site, it is not possible (unbelievable). Is there perhaps an alternative and humanly understandable way like this magnificent tutorial? Thanks and forgive the intrusion.

Everything went smoothly. To go one step further. Let's say we don't want to connect one of our devices via wifi but rather access the vpn route via a socks proxy, whose address is obviously the gateway of the subnet we created. The goal is to route by protocol or usage. p2p, music streaming. I don't want all my servers to get into the vpn subnet but more at the application layer. socks proxy would make things easier but maybe is there a simpler way...?

An amazing video but like the others online... missing the the key step. How did you connect your linux machine to the nordVVPN server ?
Make it full and not just half. :(

where did you get the nord vpn wireguard config file from?

Too bad there is no easy instructions on how to use ubiquity to setup the VPN client using what everyone uses the GUI. next video.
