Internet traffic not routed through VPN

[baarkerlounger]

I've set Peer -> Allowed IPs to 0.0.0.0/0. The connection is accepted and sudo wg on my server shows a successful handshake.

But the default gateway on my client is not updated so internet traffic is not routed through the VPN. Should this not happen automatically or am I missing some setting?

Ubuntu 21.10
Gnome 40.4.0
Wayland
