Description

when disconnect in the client(iOS，Mac and windows), after some time to connect the wireGuard again, the status on the client side is success, but in the client log alway show "handshake did not complete after 5 seconds retrying(try 2)"

in this time can only need to restart the wireGuard on the vps, it there any other better solution on it?

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate why WireGuard handshake fails after client reconnection. Check server routing tables, firewall rules, and persistent keepalive settings. Verify if the server's WireGuard interface is properly handling new handshakes after client disconnects.
