Manual Configuration for Static IP Servers

**TL;DR** I am looking to manually setup a connection to New York #001 - Static IP on my router. How can I generate the Wireguard and/or .ovpn connection files for connecting to this server?

**Background**

The "static IP" servers seem to be much more stable (less captchas), and I would like to configure a permanent connection to one of the servers (i.e. New York #001) on my router using either Wireguard or OpenVPN. However, when checking the connection files under the "Manual Setup" section of the Surfshark website, I cannot find any configuration files for any of the Static IP servers.

Based on [this post](https://www.reddit.com/r/surfshark/comments/ryfe4a/comment/hsgqwp8/), the OpenVPN files were previously available in the zip archive that contains all of the OpenVPN configuration files. However, the Static IP connection files have since been removed.

[This post](https://www.reddit.com/r/surfshark/comments/yuzjas/comment/ix02m8f/) suggests that the server public key must be extracted from the Surfshark app, but doesn't explain how to do it.

I have also contacted Support and was directed back to the Manual Setup page on the Surfshark website.

For Step #1, the server list in the Pastebin link may be out of date. You can access an updated server list [here](https://api.surfshark.com/v4/server/clusters/static).
