salvialight 0 Posted ... is this doable on pi OS? i'm totally novice with this stuff. not sure when to input these commands. i have the airVPN wireguard conf file. i don't understand how/when to use the nmcli commands. i'm only doing this because the eddie GUI client just freezes upon launch no matter what i do (even on a fresh install of pi os) Quote Share this post Link to post
