Desktop (please complete the following information):
6.11.5-arch1-1 (but honestly it affects all of the OSes)
4.8.1.9

So amnezia vpn tells me, that i'm connected, red shield account page also seeing my connection, but it's just not working, i can't even ping anything.

By the way, if I take same config and use it via CLI (awg-quick) - works like a charm.

How did you start client by awg-quick? I have the same issue, but awg-quick doesn't work. I can only run AmneziaVPN and it opens GUI.
Ubuntu 22.04

By using amneziawg-tools, but not sure if you have that package in ubuntu's repo. But you can always build it from source.

It is supposed to be problem on red shield side.
After installing amneziawg-go (and building go language from source) and amneziawg-tools, it works.

Please run amneziawg-go in terminal and show output.

Anywho, this issue about amnezia-client. And no, it's not on the red shield side, because this exactly configs works just fine via awg-quick.
