    Help needed to make a router on LAN accessible remotely

    I do not know any difference except for the IP address and that they are different models (Canon vs. Brother). Everything else is the same, even the way they are connected to the Linksys (192.168.10.1). No. After I added that route in 192.168.10.12, which is a normal Windows PC, that PC is...

    Help needed to make a router on LAN accessible remotely

    I tested with Wireshark on a PC (192.168.10.12) while the PC’s firewall was turned off. That PC did not receive any ping packets from the OpenVPN network (from a PC 192.168.8.2 running the OpenVPN client). At the same time, test pings that I made directly from devices in the 192.168.10.0 network...

    Help needed to make a router on LAN accessible remotely

    I launched the official OpenVPN client on a PC in the remote (192.168.0.0) network. The OpenVPN client connected and could ping 192.168.10.7 but not e.g. 192.168.10.1. When I look at the traffic, using Wireshark, I see that Echo (ping) requests from 192.168.8.2 (or, hypothetically 10.8.0.2) to...

    Help needed to make a router on LAN accessible remotely

    At least one unpingable Windows PC has its firewall turned off and the log of Linksys’s (192.168.10.1) firewall shows no blocked connections. And when I restarted the OpenVPN server, I lost all pingability again (no devices in 192.168.10.0 are remotely pingable after connecting to the OpenVPN...

    Help needed to make a router on LAN accessible remotely

    The situation changed a little when I checked "Advertise router's IP in addition to user-specified DNS" under LAN. Now I can ping (from a remote device) some more devices in 192.168.10.x (the Asus OpenVPN router 192.168.10.7, the Linksys router 192.168.10.1, a NAS, 2 printers). However, most...

    Help needed to make a router on LAN accessible remotely

    Unfortunately that did not change anything. I guess that Asus (192.168.10.7), for some reason (probably because of being connected only through a LAN port), does not want to route at all. But on the other hand, given the intensity of VPN, perhaps it is reasonable to expect that I should be able...

    Help needed to make a router on LAN accessible remotely

    Okay, I discovered something strange. The Asus OpenVPN server router (192.168.10.7) cannot ping domain names, it can ping only IP addresses. So there is probably a DNS problem but I cannot figure out how to fix it. I also noticed that the Asus’ (192.168.10.7) time was wrong. When I replaced the...

    Help needed to make a router on LAN accessible remotely

    The client router (192.168.0.1, Asus RT-AC68U)) is also the primary router and DHCP server for a different subnet, 192.168.0.0 / 255.255.255.0. I have tried to test the same OpenVPN with the official OpenVPN client for Windows - with the same result. The Asus router (192.168.10.7 and...

    Help needed to make a router on LAN accessible remotely

    Yes but with no result. I wonder if the removed "Push LAN to clients" is somehow replaceable with custom commands and if it would work in the case of a router like Asus in this case, which is cascaded to the primary router’s LAN. If it is of any help, here is the log from my remote OpenVPN...

    Help needed to make a router on LAN accessible remotely

    It seems that this did not work. I added the following route to Linksys: Destination IP: 192.168.8.0 Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0 Default gateway: 192.168.10.7 Interface: LAN Asus has the following Routing table: 192.168.10.0 * 255.255.255.0 LAN 192.168.8.0 * 255.255.255.0 tun21 default...

    Help needed to make a router on LAN accessible remotely

    Well, not yet. At least I got my OpenVPN client connected from a remote location to the Asus’ VPN server (and that is already a big victory). But so far I cannot ping anything in the Linksys’ LAN. Trying to figure out what to change. EDIT: As a side note, I have made this work already with...

    Thanks a lot, really! It works!

    Help needed to make a router on LAN accessible remotely

    Thanks! Indeed there is no route labelled "default". When I add one, what should I write to the "Network/Host IP" and "Netmask" boxes?

    Help needed to make a router on LAN accessible remotely

    I have a Linksys LRT 214 router facing WAN and acting as a DHCP server for LAN (192.168.10.1). A LAN port of an ASUS RT-AC68U (with Merlin’s Asuswrt v384.13) is connected to a LAN port of the Linksys router (Asus has static IP 192.168.10.7 / mask 255.255.255.0). The DHCP server on Asus is...

    Asus RT-AC68U (AsusWRT) DDNS problem

    It is quite surprising how relatively simple something can be in Tomato and how complicated the same thing can be in AsusWRT. However, I did it another way. Apparently Dynu also supports hostname updates that do not contain any IP address, like e.g...

    Asus RT-AC68U (AsusWRT) DDNS problem

    It seems that I would need some help getting DDNS to work with AsusWRT 380.65. I am using an Asus RT-AC68U router, which is behind another router (and therefore does not get an external IP itself). I am using http://www.dynu.com as the dynamic DNS service. Dynu.com lets the hostname be updated...
