Wireguard one-click-app doesn't work.

Hi,

When I run "modprobe wireguard" out of the box on a fresh Nanode instance in the Mumbai region, I get the following error:

modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'wireguard': Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)

Hey there, I just tested myself and received the same message from that command, but I believe that wireguard may still be installed properly. You can confirm with dkms status (run as root), which will return the current status of the wireguard module and produce an output like so if it's installed:

# dkms status wireguard
wireguard, 0.0.20190702, 4.9.0-9-amd64, x86_64: installed

On my own Nanode, Wireguard One-click deployment to Mumbai, I'm still able to run commands with wg, so I believe the issue is just with the method used to confirm wireguard's installation.
