What is Wireguard
WireGuard is the latest VPN protocol that utilizes the latest encryption technology, is faster and simpler than IPsec, and offers higher performance than OpenVPN.WireGuard is designed as a general purpose VPN that runs on embedded interfaces and supercomputers.Originally released for the Linux kernel, Wireguard is now cross-platform ( Windows, macOS, BSD, iOS, Android) and is widely deployable. It is currently under development, but is already recognized as the most secure, easy-to-use and simple VPN solution in the industry.

The most convenient way to use Wireguard for the non-tech savvy and novice user is to use a third-party service.
Wireguard node recommendation (paid)
Commercial Wireguard nodes are probably the most effortless way for the average user to go over the wall with Wireguard, and these third-party paid services usually provide Wireguard node servers and client downloads, just like traditional paid VPNs, so that users don’t have to fiddle with them themselves, and personally, I find the manual configuration overly complicated and there are no proven client options.
The self-developed Lightway protocol is most likely based on the WireGuard development.
Built-in WireGuard protocol supports multi-hop and other fine-grained configurations.
WireGuard protocol has been fully supported since October 2020
As of August 17, 2020, VyprVPN has full support for the WireGuard protocol.
