General • RouterOS - Simple WireGuard Client Setup

Hi All,
I wish to setup a simple WireGuard client on my router (hAP ax lite LTE6) that will give me a static external ip address from the host network.
I can get this working very simply on my windows laptop with the WireGuard Windows app by importing the below config file, but need this to be running on the router for all connected clients:

[Interface]
Address = DesiredExternalIPAddress/24
ListenPort = 51820
PrivateKey = CorrectPrivateKey
DNS = 8.8.8.8

[Peer]
PublicKey = CorrectPublicKey
AllowedIPs = 0.0.0.0/0, ::/0
Endpoint = DesiredEndpointIPAddress:51820

I have been at it for hours:
- added the wireguard interface.
- added the ip under "addresses".
- added the wireguard client.
- etc. etc.
and have reset the router to factory defaults multiple times, but still no joy I'm afraid.
The router does have internet connectivity when default with a working data sim.

End goal is that any client connected to wifi or lan will have access to the internet and the router/clients will have an external IP of "DesiredExternalIPAddress".

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
