Most VPS services I've used don't have the WireGuard kernel module installed and, of course, you can't install kernel modules in VPSs.

- detaro 7y agoYou can install kernel modules in most types of VPS. OpenVZ is the only somewhat common type that doesn't support it.
- Osiris 7y agoKVM VPSs are generally significantly more expensive than OpenVZ, so for side projects where I want a cheap (<$5/mn) plan I've always used the OpenVZ VPSs.
- psic4t 7y agoYou can use the go implementation of wireguard (wireguard-go). This way you don't need a kernel module. Works for me on a really cheap OpenVZ VPS since months.
