Mac OS + IPv6 via WireGuard: "Network is down"

Mac OS + IPv6 via WireGuard: "Network is down"

[Joachim Tingvold]

Hi,

I've been trying out WireGuard for some time now, and I've encountered 
somewhat of an issue.

Whenever I try to reach resources via IPv6 using their FQDN, when the 
Mac only has IPv4 available via it's default interface (but IPv6 via 
WireGuard), things behave strangely; I can communicate with IPv6-hosts 
using their IPv6 address, but not their FQDN.

Anyone knows what could cause this, and how to solve it?
