    Setting up a VPN Server for RDP Access - Exclude RDP Port

    All network communication occurs over one or more ports. Because you are virtually in your LAN, you do not need to open ports on the router for RDP. If you use a software firewall on Windows, you must allow the necessary RDP port from within your network. Generally, people use the Windows...

    Use VPN Exclusive DNS and Local DNS

    I had some time, so I tried the AC86U. At my last AirBNB I had to use a static IP address for the WAN on the AC86U. I left that as-is when I unplugged the router. When I plugged the router in today, I had the same issue (minus the red light). I couldn't log into the router. I couldn't access...

    Use VPN Exclusive DNS and Local DNS

    I was able to narrow down that the moment I make the stated changes (i.e. add the routes to the VPN Custom Config and add the policy rules to VPN Director), a reboot will cause me to not be able to log into the router again until I factory reset it. Since my only goal for preventing the DNS...

    Solved Unable to log into router (AX86U) after reboot

    I guess I assumed the addition of the quotes would be considered a style issue, but I see what you are saying. It is beautiful here. I'm hoping to work on my Spanish some more, pero hay muchas gentes que hablan ingles aquí. I do have until June though, then off to the next country. Estoy en...

    Solved Unable to log into router (AX86U) after reboot

    I deleted them, rebooted, and they are back as directories again. Could scribe turn them into directories?

    Solved Unable to log into router (AX86U) after reboot

    Thank you. I made the change. VS Code didn't say anything about it when I put it through Prettier. Also, I had another power blip here in Costa Rica last night. As a result, the router restarted and everything came up great without issues, including VPNMON and DNSMON. I'm pretty convinced the...

    Use VPN Exclusive DNS and Local DNS

    When I use this configuration, everything is fine until my router restarts. After a restart, it will not connect to the Internet and the Internet light stays red on the router. I'm not able to log into the router again, either. I'm not sure if this is happening to anyone else but figured I would...

    Solved Unable to log into router (AX86U) after reboot

    Now that I'm thinking about this more, wouldn't my post-mount cause all kinds of issues because I have three partitions? Also, I went ahead and modified your script slightly to use parameters. Both monitoring tools now start on a reboot of the router.

    Solved Unable to log into router (AX86U) after reboot

    OK, so it has nothing to do with VPNMON, DNSMON, or any scripts in jffs. I just rebooted again and the problem recurred. I think it's safe to say that the router doesn't like something about putting the WAN DNS servers in VPN Director and/or the Custom Configuration for the VPN Client. It ends...

    Solved Unable to log into router (AX86U) after reboot

    In the interest of maybe giving too much information, but hopefully solving the problem if anyone else ever encounters it in the future, here are some screenshots: I eventually want to rely on VPNMON to handle the schedule for client 1, while vpnmgr can continue to handle the schedule for...

    Solved Unable to log into router (AX86U) after reboot

    Bad news: It happened again. Good news: I learned a bit more about nsrum and getting everything back to the way it was was significantly faster. I noticed, while using DNSMON, that after one of my reboots the VPN Director rules weren't there for the NordVPN DNS servers. Maybe I didn't click...

    Solved Unable to log into router (AX86U) after reboot

    Haha, yeah, sorry. It was so minor to modify what you wrote to work for both. I half considered making it take a parameter so I could use one file. I have no idea if that's normal for this router. I just replaced my AC86U with the AX86U two weeks ago. Your reply about post-mount is helpful. I...

    Solved Unable to log into router (AX86U) after reboot

    I'm running on a Mac. I SSHed to the router and copy/pasted what you wrote into vi. When I run your scripts manually, they work. They aren't launching from post-mount for some reason. I tried the cat commands, but those are directories for me.

    Solved Unable to log into router (AX86U) after reboot

    OK, I added the script from Martinski to post-mount (created the file and then called it from post-mount) and did another reboot. While DNSMON and VPNMON didn't start, at least my router survives reboots.

    Solved Unable to log into router (AX86U) after reboot

    Thank you! Updated news: I rebooted and everything worked as expected. I think we can safely conclude that using the routes for the NodVPN DNS servers in the custom config for the client, and also the VPN Director rules, did not cause the problem. I think my lack of understanding about...

    Solved Unable to log into router (AX86U) after reboot

    I'll try a restart tomorrow to see if I have the same issue. I can't be sure, but I think changing the QoS setting yesterday caused the router to restart. In the interest of giving all the details, I included what steps I took. Only three things are different since this issue started. I'm...

    Solved Unable to log into router (AX86U) after reboot

    I have everything I'm running in my signature. I added dnsmon to init-start. Yesterday, I decided to give the GeForce NOW QoS a try, I lost access to the router and ended up having to wipe the settings (WPS on boot method) and rebuild from scratch. Today, I lost power for about 20 seconds and...

    Interesting. After hitting that URL, I tried clicking the refresh button on the GUI. After a couple of seconds, it loaded the page, then disappeared, then returned again.
