wgnord

This script lets you connect to NordVPN servers through WireGuard using their "NordLynx" protocol.

Usage: wgnord [ l(ogin) | c(onnect) | d(isconnect) | a(ccount) ]

login:
    wgnord l "your_token"
    You can generate a (permament) token in the NordVPN dashboard
connect:
    wgnord c france
    -f            Refresh cached longitude/latitude
    -n            Don't connect
    -o out.conf   Write config to different file
disconnect:
    wgnord d
account:
    wgnord a
    Prints information about the currently logged in account

wgnord's files are in /var/lib/wgnord, edit template.conf to change Wireguard options

Installation

Dependencies:

• jq
• curl
• wg-quick (wireguard-tools)
• openresolv (for dns)

To install them on Arch:

sudo pacman -S --needed jq curl wireguard-tools openresolv

Manual installation:

git clone https://github.com/phirecc/wgnord
cd wgnord
install -Dm644 template.conf /var/lib/wgnord/template.conf
install -Dm644 countries.txt /var/lib/wgnord/countries.txt
install -Dm644 countries_iso31662.txt /var/lib/wgnord/countries_iso31662.txt
sudo install -Dm755 wgnord /usr/bin/wgnord

wgnord can also be installed through the AUR like so:

paru -S wgnord

Usage

Login (you only need to do this once):

sudo wgnord l "your_token"

You can generate a (permament) token in the NordVPN dashboard under Access token > Generate new token

Now you can connect to a server:

sudo wgnord c France

Note: country names are case-insensitive and grepped for, so sudo wgnord c fra would work aswell. See countries.txt for a list of available countries.

To disconnect:

sudo wgnord d

If you want to change WireGuard config parameters (MTU, DNS, etc.), simply modify /var/lib/wgnord/template.conf.

Extra

This script includes a "kill-switch" because of the way wg-quick works. Connections will typically stay alive for multiple days, but if it dies you can reconnect by running another connect command.

Note

This third-party project is in no way affiliated with NordVPN.
