DNS problems (PIA + OPNsense + Unbound + Adblock)
I am attempting to do a whole house VPN (i am a US citizen living abroad). I ran through the steps for the PIA automation tool to set up my wireguard instance (https://github.com/FingerlessGlov3s/OPNsensePIAWireguard). Everything seems to be configured appropriately but as soon as i set my Rule for all traffic to go through my PIA interface i lose connectivity. I am fairly certain this is an interaction with Adblock or unbound going on. I have a feeling i need to set my DNS for PIA to my opnsense router somewhere -- but its just my hunch.
- Opnsense 23.7.6 broke my wireguard
- Route traffic via VPN either single IP or VLAN

Constant system crash reports with 22.7.7_1 involving Wireguard
I use FingerlessGloves excellent script (https://github.com/FingerlessGlov3s/OPNsensePIAWireguard), but slightly modified (two additional copies) to open three connections. The one that I use for port forwarding was constantly spamming errors and filling the logs.
- Wireguard config opensense

Opnsense hardware question and a couple other opnsense questions. Yeah I know another one.
Regarding routing PIA through opnsense, this is what i used to setup something like what you want: https://github.com/FingerlessGlov3s/OPNsensePIAWireguard I hope this may be useful for you.

Does PIA have Wireguard config files for router Asus Merlin?
I googled and looked through this sub, but couldn't find the answer. The only post that was remotely close suggested I make my own config files with a shell script. https://github.com/triffid/pia-wg

How to 'whitelist' Prime video on TV?
Search for split tunnel openvpn or wireguard and you can figure out how to setup the configuration file. PIA doesn't share the wireguard configuration files, but you can get those using https://github.com/triffid/pia-wg Otherwise just use the openvpn config files. And you can install OpenVPN for Android on your tv. Copy the configuration files over and connect.

torrents on PIA wireguard w/ port forwarding dinged by ISP
Seems like a reasonable assumption - mine's just called pia but that's because I wrote my own Linux shell script(s) to do the things
