I tried the RPis with another connection and they worked briefly but 
most of the time they don't respond. I configured another laptop under 
the same other network connection and everything works seamlessly. It 
seems that the RPis just don't like WireGuard. I might have some network 
misconfiguration on them but I really can't figure it out.
