I'm going on a trip tomorrow and want to be able to access jellyfin remotely but port forwarding JF isn't an option. I already have Wireguard set up on my pfsense router and my phone can VPN in just fine. I used to have a tablet so I reused its config for my steam deck. I SSH'd the config file over, imported in Network Manager. But when I activate the Wireguard VPN nearly the entire UI stops responding. The power button works and I can bring up the on-screen keyboard but that's it. My only option is to hold down the power button to force the deck to shut down.

Anyone have any ideas what's going on?

My guess is that the steamos kernel is missing the wireguard module needed for wireguard support in NetworkManager.
