you're trying to set up WireGuard between two routers with different configurations. the issue seems to be related to routing and gateway settings. you mentioned using pfSense as a router, but it's configured with its own IP (192.168.3.155) instead of your public internet address. try ensuring your pfSense is properly connected to the internet through the ISP gateway (192.168.3.1), and verify that pfSense is forwarding traffic correctly to the WireGuard interface. also, confirm that your local PC's IP is reachable from the pfSense gateway and that you're not blocking any necessary ports. consider testing with a static public IP if possible, or adjusting your firewall rules.

I can explain it more clearly. The setup involves two IP addresses for the pfSense router on the same subnet. It seems you're using the ISP router as a gateway, which explains why mobile data functions. You're likely aiming to connect to the Wireguard network (10.10.9.x) from within your local network. However, when trying to reach other devices on 192.168.3.x, things get confusing because your PC is already connected directly to that LAN and won't use the Wireguard link. If you set AllowedIPs to 0.0.0.0/0, Wireguard might block access to those devices entirely.
