I agree with Lars A, I too am having the same problem, not only does screen sharing no longer function my Apple HomePod no longer connects. The issue seems to be any shared device on the same network trying to connect to the main computer where I am running TorGuard. This problem only began with the latest update with the wireguard feature. Originally I thought this issue was with Apple however after doing some very basic workarounds after following the suggestions on Apple forums such as disconnecting from TorGuard all streaming/screen sharing etc features are restored. The issue is with the latest TorGuard update.. Any recommendations on resolving this.. Thanks. EDIT- I found the answer to my issue - Uncheck the firewall in the network tab, viola' !

0 Lars A. 0 Posted September 10, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2020 loving this TG client with wireguard, minimal bandwith reduction; But I noticed if the client is set to autostart/auto-connect on OS startup login, it messes up all other apps during startup thus, making macOS freeze every 2 seconds or worse, gets unresponsive. I have to unplug the ethernet cable to cut trying to connect to the internet, and then macOS quickly resolves all kernel tasks, then I plug it back in to connect. But sometimes, the internet connection isn't resolved and thus plugging the ethernet back in or connecting back to the network freezes the whole thing up. Currently, I'm just setting TG client to autostart but not autoconnect, I have to manually connect it through wireguard as a workaround. Anybody else experiencing this issue?
