I've used wireguard for a pretty long time on my server and the phone as a client. I've had the same configuration for at least 4-5 years and never had issues. Last week I moved to using pihole in a container with a macvlan interface, so it has a different IP address than my physical server. Then I went and changed the DNS server IP on the wireguard config on the phone. When I reconnected I see I can't connect to any local IP address like I used to and I can't figure out why.
The local LAN is 10.11.12.0/24, the VPN is on 10.11.13.0/24.
Here's the server wireguard config:
[Interface]
Address = 10.11.13.1
ListenPort = 11194
PrivateKey = ...
PostUp = iptables -A FORWARD -i %i -j ACCEPT; iptables -A FORWARD -o %i -j ACCEPT; iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o enp3s0 -j MASQUERADE
PostDown = iptables -D FORWARD -i %i -j ACCEPT; iptables -D FORWARD -o %i -j ACCEPT; iptables -t nat -D POSTROUTING -o enp3s0 -j MASQUERADE

AllowedIPs = 10.11.13.7/32
And here's the phone's wireguard config:
Address = 10.11.13.5/24
DNS = 10.11.12.55
PrivateKey = ....
[Peer]
AllowedIPs = 10.11.0.0/16
Endpoint = my_dyndns_hostname:11194

I am able to connect and can ping 10.11.12.77, the IP address of the server, but nothing else. I have two RPis running as mpd servers and I used to be able to connect to them too, but not anymore. Their IP addresses are 10.11.12.105 and .106.
Also, before the dns change I was able (of course!) to use the local DNS I set up on the pihole, but now I'm not able to connect to the new DNS (.55) so I can't get any local address to resolve.
I'm looking for some hints on what I'm doing wrong. Please help.
Try changing your NAT rule to
"iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 10.11.13.0/24 -o eth1 -j MASQUERADE"
Also try changing your AllowedIPs to 10.11.13.0/24
The other issue may be the ability of the host/server to reach the IP address of the pihole macvlan interface. Have a look at this page, it's helped me out before -> https://adventurenotvacation.com/2020/12/01/docker-macvlan-and-debian/
In fact I don't need to access anything on 10.11.12.13.0/24 - that's the peer to peer wireguard network. I want to be able to connect to any host on 10.11.12.0/24. Adding this network to AllowedIPs I'm now able to connect to .77 (which is my server) and to .1 (the router), but not on any other hosts in the house.
This is done. I followed the instructions here: https://wiki.omv-extras.org/doku.php?id=omv6:omv6_plugins:docker_compose#how_to_create_a_vlan_with_ip_on_the_same_lan_as_the_host which are the same thing as the article you linked.
... I'm still looking into things.
