    Github snapshot test builds (Updated 30-May-2015)

    Connected to a VPN provider, in routing policy mode, block routed clients if tunnel goes down set to yes. Everything working properly. All I have to do is switch to all traffic mode and click apply to reproduce the problem of LAN clients routed through tunnel being blocked even though the...

    Merlin, if block routed clients if tunnel goes down is set to yes, but redirect internet traffic is set to all traffic or no, the block still exists. Is that working or intended or should those ip rules be cleaned up with the switch away from policy routing?

    Asus RT-AC3200 Router and VPN

    goldenegg, perhaps you passed over where the OP said he was planning to use torguard.net. That is a VPN service. rmilyard, I would encourage you to flash with Merlin, for sure. since VPN is important to you I'm sure you'll appreciate the policy routing that Merlin firmware has for openvpn...

    OK, I'm guessing it's not possible. Afterall, how could the router allow some clients through WAN if itself was forced through the tunnel, right?

    Github snapshot test builds (Updated 30-May-2015)

    testing out the policy routing now that exceptions can be made in GUI. for some background, I have internet facing router at 192.168.1.1 and router that runs openvpn client at 192.168.2.1. With a rule 192.168.2.0/24 to all destinations going through the VPN tunnel, router 192.168.2.1 does not...

    with AC68, in windows explorer network section I still see a computer with monitor icon for the router. only samba share is enabled in router (no DLNA, etc.)

    loaded this and everything seems to be working but I am only using openvpn client without policy routing. nevertheless, no problems connecting to VPN providers. AC68 here.

    Merlin FW and VPN Setup Questions. ...Confused

    the point martinr is making is that your web browser will still be identifiable unless you take measures to make it looks like millions of others or make it change with every access to the same web site. by the same token you would also want to change what VPN server you are using from time to...

    Port forwarding wan ip when using openvpn

    Slow OpenVPN on AC87r

    so maybe there is a bug with openvpn and QoS interacting. but, is there a reason you have to use QoS? why not just shut it all off? less work for the router to do.

    asus router for wired 1 Gbps PPPoE

    I have fiber to my room and ISP requires PPPoE as well. And only 35mbit/s for $60 per month. Waste of fiber and expensive to boot. :)

    Slow OpenVPN on AC87r

    I'm sure you've tried different servers? A few months ago somebody bought an AC87 for use with PIA and shared his happy experience on the PIA forums. He was getting over 50mbit/s down IIRC. It could be nothing to do with you, and nothing to do with PIA, but your ISP that's throttling openvpn.

    using AC68 to connect to hotel wifi

    Thanks so much for the research. I went ahead and installed dd-wrt and the repeater mode seems to be working, DHCP and NAT included. I tested by connecting it to my home wifi network, ethernet from laptop to LAN port. So, I'm happy. :)

    using AC68 to connect to hotel wifi

    I have an old WRT54GL running tomato. I haven't used it in a couple years. Any chance tomato does repeater mode with DHCP and NAT? I'll have to fire it up and check it out. Thanks for all the tips!

    using AC68 to connect to hotel wifi

    I use VPN to paid VPN service 24/7 anyway, just for some measure of anonymity, bypassing georestrictions, bypassing ISP blocks, etc. I just want to be able to keep doing that, especially on public networks like a hotel. The other problem is that many times public wifi will allow only 1 device...

    using AC68 to connect to hotel wifi

    sorry, that makes no sense. VPNs are especially useful in public wifi places such as this. :)

    using AC68 to connect to hotel wifi

    I have a situation where I'll be staying in a hotel where wifi is typically open but requires a web page login. I'd like to use my AC68 to connect to the hotel wifi network and provide access to several of my devices all though VPN tunnel. Is there a way to do this? Thanks for your help.
