    I can confirm that the problem I had posted above (Wireguard with Fritzbox host) works when I switch the config to an IP instead of a FQDN.

    I think this limitation could be highlighted a bit more prominently in the wiki page. Yes, the wiki mentions only an IP address. However, by default one could assume that it could be easily replaced with an hostname. Adding one sentence to the known issue chapter stops people like me from going into the wrong direction. A direction which is well possible to take as VPN and Dyndns is a very common combination for many use-cases. (For me, I use it to connect to my tvheadend instance at home when travelling.)

    This sounds very similar to the behavior which I observe with my Wireguard VPN server hosted on my Fritzbox.

    Connections work 100% reliable when connecting other networks via Fritzbox or clients eg from my Android mobile device.

    When connecting from LE on my Raspberry PI 3, the connection is reported to be established.

    However, the connections is available only sporadically.

    Using ping, I see that for 80% of the connection attempts, the connection is not available. Sometimes ping works after establishing the connection. But only for a limited time. After less than 5 minutes (exact timing is random) ping stops working, and never recovers afterwards.

    Checking the connection on LE using "wg" command, the connection is reported as established, even though the connection obviously dropped.

    In the Fritzbox connection details the connection sometimes even gets a green checkmark.

    However, in contrast to the working connections, the LE connection never receives a timestamp in the "last negotiation" column:
