We have been working a long time for this, and we're absolutely thrilled to finally be able to release WireGuard in the desktop client.
A few notes:
- There is no support for Public IPv4 and Multihop when using WireGuard
in this version of the desktop client. Public IPv4 with WireGuard in
the desktop client will be integrated within the next few months.
- OpenVPN is still the default protocol. To use WireGuard, click the Cogs icon, and on the Protocol page, enable Connect using WireGuard.
- There have been some changes in the design, which will be improved further on.
List of changes in v2.0.0
- New: WireGuard is included
- New: added a Beta setting that allows users to participate in betas prior to stable release
- Bug fix: localized city names for all languages
- Bug fix: remove hard coded device limit of 4 in error messages
- Improvement: updated OpenVPN to 2.5.5
- Improvement: updated layout, but more improvements await
- Improvement: increased stability
