I found a way to make it work more automatically. The reason the port 
was getting reassigned was because the original connection packet was 
being tracked and was conflicting with the source nat mapping even though 
in reallity the connection was the same. By putting in CT --notrack rules 
I was able to block that traking and without the conflict the port doesn't 
get remapped. I don't need tracking or the original connection for my 
firewall rules so this should be OK. On testing it seems to work as 
expected. Now when I reboot my router, my laptop reconnects and the wireguard 
tunnel works without having to restart it.
