Nordvpn

NordLynx is the technology we built around the WireGuard® protocol. Daz 4.12. It lets you experience WireGuard's speed benefits without compromising your privacy. Install the NordVPN app for Linux. You can find tutorials for various distributions here. Wireguard is running on Docker inside a VM. Wireguard port has been forwarded from my router to the vm container. Sysctl ip forwarding has been enabled. From within the wireguard docker container I can ping everywhere (inside and outside) and dns resolution is working.

Wireguard Nordvpn Docker

NordVPN states that it only allows the use of its WireGuard/WinTun protocol (branded NordLynx) via its own NordVPN App. On Windows, NordVPN App uses a very outdated OpenVPN version and in many ways, it is just bloatware.. I would much rather use the latest OpenVPN Alpha (Technology Preview) that supports WireGuard/WinTun protocol. Here's the link to it - https://openvpn.net/download/openvpn-2-5_git-wintun-technology-preview/ .
When following instructions outlined in the link I provided above, I can't connect to any NordVPN servers, even the servers that do work with NordLynx Protocol when connecting via NordVPN App. I also wonder if I should care because with standalone OpenVPN Windows App (UDP Protocol) my latency is actually better than latency I get with my ISP, my top speed is within 95% of the speed I get without any VPN, and that speed is achieved within seconds. OpenVPN Client CPU utilization stays below 2%. I know WireGuard/WinTun/NordLynx is much lighter compared to OpenVPN, but in my case, I wonder if there would be any major difference. My only issue with NordVPN is that every once in a while, I get disconnected during online play..
