I - Installation

First of all, you will have to download the software from: https://www.wireguard.com/install/

WireGuard for Windows runs on Windows 7, 8, 8.1, 10, 2012, 2016 and 2019 and is available in 64-bit and 32-bit versions.

Note: WireGuard is also available on all the other platforms (Apple, Android, Linux, Mac OS X).

II - Importing the tunnels

We are now going to configure your tunnel. To obtain the ".conf" files needed to add the tunnels, you will have to go to this link:

USA: https://my.awoui.fr/index.php/s/7Kmcerss2PzR8Ej

Singapore: https://my.awoui.fr/index.php/s/a4wREaQsd5iiXNf

If you use the files we provide, you will only need the first file, that is to say "peer100.conf."

Download it, and keep it at hand.

Then, in the software interface, click:

Import tunnel → Import tunnel(s) from file

Import the "peer100.conf" file and you should see it in your tunnels on the left of the interface.
