Are outgoing ports blocked by the university? Wireguard servers usually use port 5000. http://portquiz.net:5000/

I run wireguard servers on many ports, including 53, 443 and 5-figure numbers. I don't think I've got 5000 anywhere though.

Same. Not that it means much, but I've been seeing 51820 being used in all documentation, blog posts, etc. Probably just copypasting the original examples, e.g.

A month ago I dug through the history, the only trace to origin of using 51820/UDP I've found is that the number is hardcoded in one of the tests.
