Set up a device
Each device gets its own config from your device list: add the device there, then follow the steps for what it is. Turning the VPN on and off happens in the WireGuard app — the banner above says which it is for this device right now.
- Install the official WireGuard app for Windows from wireguard.com/install.
- Download the device's .conf from your device list.
- In WireGuard, press Import tunnel(s) from file and pick the .conf.
- Press Activate. The banner at the top of this page then says ON VPN.
On and off: the WireGuard app is the switch. Activate = on, Deactivate = off. The tray icon opens it.
⚠ Attention While it is on, websites see you coming from a datacentre address (5.78.185.235), and many of them treat that as a bot — expect extra captchas, and some sites (banks, shops, streaming) may refuse you. Turn it off when that matters. It reaches the internet only — never a home or private network.
- Install the official WireGuard app from the Mac App Store (linked from wireguard.com/install).
- Download the device's .conf from your device list.
- In WireGuard, choose Import tunnel(s) from file, pick the .conf, and press Allow when macOS asks to add a VPN configuration.
