lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 21.10
Release: 21.10

Wireguard from network-manager deosn't create route to server ip. It's a problem when "allowed ips" '0.0.0.0/0' are used.

Steps to reproduce:
Create wireguard connection with 0.0.0.0/0

Steps to workaround:
add route 'ip ro add <SERVER IP> via <REGULAR GATEWAY>'

Example:

root@laptop:/home/krolik# nmcli
wg0: connected to YYYYYY
        "wg0"
        wireguard, sw, mtu 1420
        ip4 default
        inet4 172.16.15.5/24
        route4 172.16.15.0/24
        route4 0.0.0.0/0
        route4 0.0.0.0/0

wlp2s0: connected to ZZZZZZ
        "Intel 8265 / 8275"
        wifi (iwlwifi), 98:2C:BC:28:4D:99, hw, mtu 1500
        inet4 192.168.74.88/24
        route4 192.168.74.0/24
        route4 169.254.0.0/16
        route4 0.0.0.0/0
        inet6 fe80::855c:d923:50d1:f012/64
        route6 fe80::/64

DNS configuration:
        servers: 8.8.8.8
        interface: wg0
        type: vpn

        servers: 8.8.8.8
        interface: wlp2s0

Use "nmcli device show" to get complete information about known devices and
"nmcli connection show" to get an overview on active connection profiles.

Consult nmcli(1) and nmcli-examples(7) manual pages for complete usage details.
