Oh, I just realized I used the 1432 MTU in my earlier reply based on
Marek's math but since Luiz's underlay network is IPv6 this is not actually
correct. MTU=1440 is only correct on top of IPv4, for IPv6 the "optimal"
MTU is 1420 so with PPPoE involved that's MTU=1412.

  1500 Ethernet payload
   -40 IPv6 header
    -8 UDP header
   -32 Wg header
    -8 PPPoE
===================
  1412 wg tunnel MTU
