I have a GL MT1300 router. According to the GL website (and the onboard software) I should be able to simply enter my Mullvad account number, and it will do all the work so I can connect via WireGuard. However, it doesn't seem to be working like that for me.
I have tried both simply entering my Mullvad account number, but after a few minutes 'generating configuration' that returns an error "Add Failed"
I have also tried doing so manually, following instructions I found on another post, and pasting the config details (generated on the Mullvad website) directly in. But when I do that, I get the error "No parameter found."
So I'm not sure what to try next. I'm based in China, but Mullvad works here, so I'd hoped it would work on my GL router too. If anyone has any suggestions, I'd appreciate hearing what I've undoubtedly missed!
EDIT: As expected, yep, it was my stupidity. I assumed a 4 year old router would be as updated as it would ever be, but in fact, my firmware was about two years out of date! Updated that, used manual config files, and Mullvad connected straight away. Yay!
