Installing amneziawg on Keenetic router can help bypass restrictions imposed by your Internet Service Provider (ISP) by concealing the operation of WireGuard. Unlike traditional VPN setups, amneziawg masks the WireGuard protocol, making it difficult for the ISP to detect that you’re using a VPN. This stealth feature prevents the provider from identifying and blocking the VPN traffic, ensuring a seamless and unrestricted internet experience even in environments where VPN usage is typically monitored or restricted by government-controlled firewalls.

If the “WireGuard VPN” component is not installed, check the appropriate checkbox for installation, and click the “Update KeeneticOS” button that appears below. Wait for the router to update and reboot. Install AmneziaWG client on Keenetic router Step6 If you get insufficient memory to install all select components in a new window that appears during the system update, click to View changes and disable components, and uncheck the unnecessary components to free up memory. If the update is interrupted with the message “Not enough space”, you need to disable unnecessary components in the list to reduce the size of the update. Install AmneziaWG client on Keenetic router Step7 After that, upgrade the router to version 4.2 or later by clicking the Update KeeneticOS button on the System Settings page. During the update process, the router will reboot. Install AmneziaWG client on Keenetic router Step8 After updating and restarting the router, you need to log in again on the router management page.

To do this, click on the “Import from file” link. Install AmneziaWG client on Keenetic router Step 12 Choose the config file and press enter. You should get the following, where VPS_IP_ADDRESS is the IP address of VPS, and 42666 is the port. The new connection should appear in the Wireguard section, with the same name as the imported file. But it’s too early to use the connection that has appeared. You need to go to its settings for editing by clicking on its line anywhere except the switcher. Install AmneziaWG client on Keenetic router !The internal IP address of the new connection must be unique among existing Wireguard connections to avoid conflicts. If a conflict occurs, create a new configuration file with a different IP address for one of the conflicting connections. Step 13 In the connection settings window that opens, mark the Use to access the Internet checkbox, then save the changes by clicking the Save button at the bottom of the settings page.

Install AmneziaWG client on Keenetic router Step 17 Now, you know the name of the interface and the values of the asc parameters from the file my_amneziawg_client1.conf that we saved earlier. You need to replace all the template values in parentheses with your values and delete the brackets themselves.
Open the my_amneziawg_client1.conf on your computer. From this file, you will need the values of the parameters Jc, Jmin, Jmax, S1, S2, H1, H2, H3, H4 - these are the asc parameters.

Install AmneziaWG client on Keenetic router Step 23 Move again to Internet → Connection Policies → Policy Bindings. In the Default policy section choose the device (for example it is SamsungSmartTv) for which you want to route traffic through amneziawg. In the switcher menu choose our amneziawg policy and click to Confirm. Install AmneziaWG client on Keenetic router The device will be moved to amneziawg policy. Install AmneziaWG client on Keenetic router Step 24 To verify that the VPN connection is working correctly for the selected device, you can check its IP address.
